Classic Volkswagens don't have brakes that can be counted on, time after time, at least not on today's highways when needed most. It's time to change that. It's time to install an American-Made disc brake kit that exceeds expectations every time. It's time for a set of BAD Series Disc Brakes from your friends at Airkewld. The GEN 2 set of BAD Series Brakes brings new life to a tried and true disc brake conversion. Any conversion offered by the PRO's will come with all the necessary parts to install; you will only need to supply the brake fluid and furnish the lug nuts required to fit your actual wheels. If you need to know what you need, check out this article. Made in the USA | Product updated 12/25/23 by Pete Related: Front Disc Brake Kit | PRObuilt Transaxle | Lug Nuts Typical time to install - 3 Hours | Install PDF Link | Install Video | Tools Needed The rotors consist of three parts; the hub, the bolt pattern, and the rotor. All parts are made in the USA with high-end CNC machines. The BAD Series rotors have a lifetime warranty as well. If you wear one out, we will send you a new one free; pay shipping. These hubs allow the interchanging of bolt patterns. What does this mean? If you order them with a Chevrolet 5x4.75 bolt pattern and you want to install Porsche wheels a few months later, you can! All it takes is removing the bolt patterns from the rotors and installing the new ones. Track WidthZero Added Track with all applications Parts that come in this kit Gen 2 BAD Series Rotor Assemblies with the bolt pattern of your choice equipped with 14mm x 1.50 studs. You will need to know if your wheels take a specific lug nut to work.Premium Grease Seal KitsCaliper BracketsCalipers/pads in the color of your choice, with or without ebrake provisionsMounting hardware, shims and loctiteStainless Steel Brake HosesGen 2 billet grease caps with hardware, anti-seize and Allen wrenchesAxle NutsChromoly spacers for rotorsBillet Cable ClampsCotter Pin Replacement BoltseBrake Cables with stainless hardware (if selected) What doesn't come in the kit Lug Nuts - Link to find out what you needAxle Bearing Clamps - (Re-use your factory versions)Swing Axle Seal Race (Re-use your factory versions)Brake Fluid (Dot 3)Axle Bearing Clamps hardware (reuse factory hardware) RecommendationsUse an air impact to tighten the rear rotors, not a torque tool as per install guide instructionsWilwood Rear Caliper Options - No eBrake ProvisionsBecause these do not have e-brake provisions, these brakes are not street legal. To remove ourselves from the liability, we have created rear brackets that do not have holes in them so that the installer would need to drill holes to hang the calipers. This would then make the product altered/customized and would take the liability off of us and allow us to legally sell them.
