EMPI VW Disc Brake Kit, Front, 4x130mm, Stock Spindle
One of the best upgrades you can do for your Bug or Ghia is to convert the old drum brakes to disc brakes. This kit gives you the stopping power and safety of disc brakes in a bolt-on kit, including new stock-height ball joint spindles. This kit comes with late model style spindles that convert your car to a late model ball joint spindle point and uses late model Ghia style brake rotors. This rotor comes with M14-1.5 threaded holes with a VW 4x130mm pattern. Wheel studs are not included. This kit can be used on Thing but requires lower torsion arm be changed to a ball joint Bug torsion arm with the ball joint pointing up rather than down.
Kit Includes: (1) Set of Stock Height Spindles, (2) Brake Rotors(4x130mm Lug Pattern), (2) Brake Calipers w/Pads, (2) Backing Plates.
Installation Note: For '66-'68 Model vehicles you must use '69 and later Tie Rod Ends (See Related Products). This kit requires '69 and later wheel bearings and seals (See Related Products). Must be used with 15" or larger wheels. This kit does not include Grease Caps. (See Related Products) WARNING! It is extremely important that brake lines be installed by a trained mechanic. Proper length of each line in relation to wheel travel and steering angle is critical to avoid brake failure. Equally important is brake lines must be free flowing and have no contamination. Additionally, all calipers must be bled properly, regardless of kit purchased. Do not attempt brake line or caliper installation without the experience to properly evaluate all of these issues.
