Will Beetle Rotors fit on Type 3
Special Air Service - January 27th, 2008 at 09:13 PM

I know a similar question has been asked a little further down the page but, will the front rotors off a 4 stud beam front end beetle fit on a 1972ish type 3 notch back?
Im thinking of buying a notch & want to know if I can swap some bits over?

Cheers
Brendan

Cool, thanks for that, Ive got near new porsche pattern rotors & type 3 drums on beetle that I might swap over.

Hi

The 72 (the ones with bigger calliper) and later Type 3 used a slightly larger diameter 411 rotor, I dont think that you can buy them any more, a Beetle one will fit OK.
