  • B5 vented rears on B4

    Well, here's some intresting progress for all of us sore about the rear brake situation. In my quest to put 5-bolt hubs on my US B4, I have discovered that the rear hub carriers for B5 and B4 are identical. This means that you can have vented rear discs with your 5-bolt conversion. SHWING!. Any rate, the parts are in the post and I'll be trying it out early next week. Still a question of just_how identical as far as wheel bearing fitment and different years/engines affect the details. I has been done by one person and I intend to be the second. Will have pics and part numbers shortly.
