Custom off road rear disc brake conversions
Would anybody know what disc rotors and calipers were used in the rear disc brake conversion sold by George at Custom offroad, I have been running a
set for years with good desalts and would like to make a set for a kombi, I was lead to believe they were EA falcon but the discs are solid on the EA
where as on my beetle they are 20mm thick vented rotors with the matching caliper with the built in hand brake. Can any body help with the
information.

Could be XF? brakes, have a set here but they are not in great condition.

I do not think they are XF vented rotors as they are 20 mm thick, this is the only photo i have , the caliper brackets are aluminium with a machined
steel adapter to fit the carrier instead of the backing plates.

Thanks for the reply, I think the rotor thickness is 24mm on the XF. I will put the vernier on them tomorrow
