I got this from a Mk3 Pickup. It`s a 6 stud at back and front.
I put the hub from mk3 on the mk2 on 20 minutes. It`s a lot wider beam axle so only the leafs, u bolts, Brake/calipper is usable. I`m working on this today and tomorrow pictures of my projekt.

ive done a few searches and was also thinkin of upgrading to vented, but it seems that involves having 6 stud too - which i dont want.

im gonna have to fork out for recon calipers and stick with the solid discs, ah well
only just read this but ..........

i think :roll: :lol:

you could fit mk4/5 vented disks and calipers on a mk3 (ifs) hubs onto a mk2 beam axle and keep it all 5 stud :!:

i'll try it one day :lol:

Yeah, You could also choose mk3 vented disc and calipper, 4 pots !!!
They sell them cheap here in norway. aprox 110 Pound. per caliper. ..

But in the meantime i have lookheed 2 pots brakes on from a mk2 camper same as they on mk3 (ifs), Also the brakedisc from a mk2 will fit on a mk3 hub... i tried that today just to watch !!!
