Would Mk3 Golf front discs and stub axle assembly fit a two bolt '79 beetle strut. Haven't Googled or looked, just asking at this stage as I may be able to get hold of some.

Holzl has never mentioned to me that they would fit

Meaning - i reckon if they DID fit we would have talked about it in the last 15 years or so

Be interesting to hear other comments

Hi
I don't thing they would seeing the difference in ride height etc between a beetle and a golf..
Plus MK3 golfs were designed a long time after the 1303S Beetle... this a guess...

a quick look at their front suspenion exploded view should show it..

cheers

Believe it or not but the front wheel drive factor didn't even enter my head!! Must be getting old.
