Polo playa rear disc conversion

Post by merlinvenn27 »

Awe Members

I want to convert the drum setup on my Polo Playa to disc/caliper setup. I need to know from which car do I salvage rear hubs etc from: golf 3 or golf 2? Have any of you guys done the conversion and can spare some advice. Thank you

why not recon the drums and fit a better system upfront where most of the braking is done

Mk3 and mk2 has basically the same rear setup. Bu as stu said - don't bother. Go big in front.
