Listees,
I have Big brakes for the 2WD Vanagons both early (80-85) and Late (86-91) are available!! For the Syncro owners that want to make these fit the difference is a 7mm (or so) spacer between the caliper and the upright The early kit comes with the 86-91 Uprights too allow you to bolt this larger caliper on to it. Kit includes; Early Kit $830.00 Rotors Hubs Calipers Pads Wheel Bearings Knuckles Dust Shields Late Kit $630.00 Rotors Hubs Calipers Pads Wheel Bearings
As you see there are HUBS. This means that the rotor is a “slip on” style and the bearings are pressed into the hub as opposed to being in the rotor. The instructions will include a procedure for adjusting the proportioning valve to compensate for the much-improved front brakes. There are only a limited number of these kits right now. There will be more soon but the quantity that there are at the moment will be gone quickly until the second batch.
