    73 dodgy cross over year for discs and callipers, but those dropped spindles you bought (not the flipped TH type?) only take the later ones. You might have had to replace callipers and discs anyway. It's your bus but I'd be acquiring new ones or refurbishing your existing as you'll almost certainly have to refurbish any 2nd hand callipers anyway and discs are fairly cheap?

    Definitely check you have later callipers before you refurb them, see my post above ref dropped spindles.

    I looked at my callipers and having restored a few previously I replaced. Search hard enough (not VW specialist supplier!) and they can be only about double the refurb kit! Why bother!
