I'm getting ready to finally get my '70 Bug back on the road with a replacement pan (rusted frame head) and want to upgrade the front brakes to disc while I have it in pieces.
I did this a number of years ago with my daughter's '74 and was very pleased with the improvement in braking. I bought a new beam with the spindles to mount the calipers and wish to buy a kit with stock hight spindles. If memory serves me right this kit came from Aircooled.net but I see that currently their kit is on long-term backorder. After some searches I find the kits but am VERY leery of the quality after looking at a video of what looks like the locator pins flexing under pressure and the author commenting on the poor quality of the EMPI-branded kit. Looking at the CB Performance kits - anyone have experience with them or any other kits? Cost is NOT a major factor - safety and longevity is.
