The post 1955-1979 Wagenswest, “Really Good Wide Five” Disc Brake Kit appeared first on Wagenswest.

This kit is the result of many years of refining our other disc brake kits, with help from our customers and their input. Designed to fit inside your stock 14”inch VW bus wheels, and will fit inside most any wheel you will put on the front of your 73-79 bus. Despite having a large 11”inch rotor and a Quality US made 4 piston Wilwood caliper, this brake kit only has a + 5mm offset, And it comes with all the parts needed to do the conversion except for grease.

Replacement parts are all readily available.

The rotors are from a 944/911 Porsche. The bearings are the stock ones for your bus and same with the seals and the caliper is one of the most common, made by Wilwood. We build this disc brake kit in house on our machines in Salem Oregon and we are very proud to offer it to you. This disc kit ships with a stock 112mm bolt pattern.

A must for a disk brake conversion!

We use 2 style master cylinders, 1971-79 bus with 24mm pistons or a rabbit master cylinder with 21mm pistons.

We like to use the late bus master cylinder for disc brakes with LARGE piston calipers and we use the rabbit for small piston disc brakes (1.5 inch &under) or drum brakes.

Includes

1 – disc brake dual circuit master cylinder.

1 – Adapter kit and boot.

1 – set of hoses, clamps and elbow.

1 – Dual circuit reservoir and 2 rubber grommets.

This is a smaller version of our Bustang brake it is built on the Mustang II rotor and uses a pair of Wilwood calipers with four 1.38 inch pistons. The great thing about these brakes is that you can bolt a 14 inch rim over them without any issues.

The kit comes with

2x Wilwood calipers, hardware and 6061 CNC machined caliper mounts.

2x Rotors with new bearings and seals.

2x New Wagenswest aluminum grease caps (not the gold ones shown).

2x Brake line adapters

2x Custom CNC machined billet aluminum wide five adapters with 14×1.5mm studs.

And all the bolts needed to install.

INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO INSTALL THIS KIT HERE!

We also suggest converting to a dual disk master cylinder; we like to use this rabbit master kit for 1955-67 bus, or this kit for 68-70 bus.

Here is the disc kit that will fit your early 1955-63 VW bus.

This is a service!

Send us your stock Volkswagen bus spindles and a set of 944 Porsche spindles. With these two sets, we make  Bus/Porsche hybrid dropped spindles. We also rebuild the king pins, on link-pin spindles.

The whole idea is that you will have a set of new  drop spindles that use stock Porsche disc brakes.

Drop heights available are

3″ inch

4″ inch

5″ inch

6″ inch

After selecting the drop height and  placing the order, box and ship us the two core sets of spindles. Also please include a copy your order, that will be sent to your email address.
