Just a handy tip you may not know, early wide 5 drums work on late 4 stud backing plates
Makes it a bit easier and cheaper than finding all early parts!
And there was something about the wheel cyls too from memory but can't recall what it was. Something like beetle front cyls are the same as type 3 rears? don't quote me, but if you can find what it was it can also save you $$$$

Try Rick, he has a bunch of stuff.....

Barny on here or business name under sponsor thread is Volks-re-cycle or something close to that.....

you could try this bloke.

Good luck. Type 3 wide 5 drums are like hens teeth.

Do you have to use type 3 drums?

What about these?

THought thats why you may have wanted them. Are you running short or long axles?

1500 beetle axles and brakes and type 3 drums are the go

This is getting rediculous

this is getting ridiculous

there's an echo in here

Are you already running long axles?


Drums are available new, and not hard to find some 12v rear brake bits.
