Okay, so it's just a few wheel bearings...(that I've come across so far)
Front 914/4 wheel bearings are the same as the 84-96 GTI rear wheel bearings(possibly other watercooled VW models as well) So, what does this mean? Hell if I know, but I think it might be possible to bolt on rotors with a factory drilled 4x100 or 5x100 pattern AND/OR vented rotors if available. I'm still doing some research on this and I just might have to hit the pick-n-pull to verify this one of these days. |

Pretty cool.
But.. just because they use the same bearing doesnt mean that the distance between the bearings is the same (unless you know this and didnt say anything) B |
