Description
An air-cooled VW industry first offered exclusively from AC Industries at an incredibly affordable price! The first 100% bolt-on wide-5-lug rear disc brake kit was developed to give the vintage enthusiast a heavy-duty disc brake system that would put up with real-world use dished out by the rigors of daily driving and/or big motor punishment. As an added bonus, this kit will not affect the stock wheel location, so wheel clearance problems are not an issue. If your wheels fit a drum brake setup with no problems, they will fit this disc brake kit.
For the first time, this kit is available because of the new single-piston floating caliper and is perfect for a trike, buggy, or street car where an emergency brake is not wanted or required. Super easy to install and comes standard with hardware and axles seals.

• (2) Rotors with VW Wide-5 pattern, 5 x 205mm

• (4) Brake pads #D391
