Bert,
The problem that I had with the left(drivers side) spindle from an empi
kit was that the speeometer cable drilling was not well done at all.
Even after I worked it over, my speedometer has the bump,bump look of a
kinked cable...I don't expect the cable to last very long.
look at that part carefully!
Cheers, dave

The last piece of my disk-brake conversion kit for my 1970 beetle arrived today
from Mid America Motorworks – almost exactly 6
months to the day after I ordered the conversion kit. It purported to be a
“remanufactured” left spindle, though unlike the
right spindle shipped earlier, it was drilled and tapped in only 2 of the 3
mounting holes for the dust shield; it had surfaces
that were cast, not machined; and it was distinctly rougher than its right-side
mate. It did carry the VW and Audi logos but
showed no signs of remanufacture. And it looked too rough to be original.
Question: does anybody have experience with the MAM disk-brake conversion kit?
Any quality issues? I’m hoping it’s better
than their shipping capability.
