Hello listies, Has anyone retro fitted the big eurovan vented disc brakes onto a vanagon? this would seem like a feasible swap as the bolt circle is the same. I know that you would have to use 16" wheels and machine the rotors off of the vanagon disc to use them as hubs. I am wondering how close the caliper would be to fitting or if it is totally incompatible with the vanagon steering knuckle.....Just a thought,would be nice to have a locally sourced kit with readily available parts...
