Hi
I am looking at doing a front disk brake conversion on my 1972 beetle. I have given up trying to get the original drums to work efficiently for any extended period of time. Can anyone advise where one can source a decent quality conversion kit? This model has the king pin and link pin front suspension setup.
Many thanks,
Beetle front disk brake conversion

Beamish beach buggies in Cape Town will do a conversion using golf parts
No sense being pessimistic. It wouldn't work anyway.
