EMPI's 4x130 Bolt On Rear Disc Brake Kit with parking brake fits Swing Axle equipped 1958 through 1967 Beetles and 1958 through 1967 Karmann Ghias. This disc brake kit will give your classic VW the stopping power of modern brake technology. The disc brake kit includes 4x130 brake rotors, calipers, pads, parking brake cables, mounting hardware, gaskets and instructions. You can choose from Stamped Steel Brake Caliper Brackets or "Heavy Duty" Cast Steel Brackets to mount the calipers to the axle housing. We recommend installing a large bore master cylinder when installing rear disc brakes because of the distance from the master cylinder and the larger diameter of the brake pistons in the calipers versus wheel cylinders.
This kit includes the following:
4x130 Lug Pattern Brake Rotors with 14x1.5 ThreadsStamped or Cast Caliper Brackets
Brake Calipers & Pads
Mounting Hardware & Instructions

All brake parts must be thoroughly cleaned and disc brake grease must be used on all brake pad contact surfaces or brake squeak and vibration may occur.
15" or larger wheels must be used with the disc brake kit. 14" wheels cannot be used.
A large bore master cylinder is recommended if converting to rear disc brakes.
Our Expert's Take:
Rear Disc Brakes are the perfect complement to front disc brakes for those looking for the ultimate in stopping power for their VW. The parking brake equipped rear disc brakes also offer additional stopping power for those that want the extra insurance and performance that disc brakes offer. We recommend using a large bore master cylinder whenever installing rear disc brakes, regardless of whether or not you have front disc brakes.
