Type 3 rear brake drums


Have got these t3 rear brake drums off a fastback.
They are 2 piece drums. (See pictures) I was under the impression that all brake drums for VW were 1 piece
Can anybody confirm that this is standard for T3 fastback and can I get 1 piece drums. Have heard of BRAX units for wide 5 wheels.
Are these available for for 4 stud and where would I find them?

Why would you want a one piece drum? The 4 stud drive flange is super handy if you ever wish to do a disc brake conversion. You can make your own :)



madness is in the eye of the beholder :yes:

I have the Type3 hubs and drums as in your picture and they work fine on my Beetle. Cheap and effective way of getting far bigger rear brakes with all genuine parts

Type 3 brakes in good working order are all you need on the back of a buggy.
