What is the best way of change from 5 stud swing axle to Porsche stud pattern? Do you just swap drums or convert to disc? it's on my buggy so don't really need more brakes, just need to modify! you know the feeling just can’t help my self.:D

Are you talking 130 pcd 5 bolt???

Aint there a wide 5 porsche????

Anyway - if 130 pcd then you will need to either convert to later drums and get new drums (or get your old ones re-drilled)

Or convert to Type 3 drums and get new drums (or get your old ones re-drilled)

Or convert to rear discs

yes 130 PCD, who makes a good rear disc set up. It's running Type 3 stuff at the moment. Do I need to get an engineer to look at these changes or are they ok?
