A Guide - 4 to 5 Stud Conversion

[rolex 0]

I went 4 to 5stud but stayed narrow track (due to having everything poly bushed and refurbed) and got 288 disc. only thing that was a slight prob was to machine down caliber carriers. do you want a list of what i used?

right, this was mainly thanks to mikkijaneShe gave me the idea/knowledge how to keep narrow but go 5 stud. (i think thats her user name, the one thats building the v8 c)

 

I used,

mk 3 golf 288 caliper and carrier (carrier i had machined down to allow for correct offset- think it was 5mm)

288 pads

mk3/vr cv joint

16v hub carrier

16v cv/hub bearing

16v wishbones and subframe

288 disc (think, will double check when back at work these where for a bora)

 

think that was it.
