{"product_id":"rear-disc-brake-kit-7","title":"Rear Disc Brake Kit","description":"The EMPI 22-2905-F Deluxe Rear Disc Brake Kit is engineered to significantly upgrade the braking performance of classic Volkswagen Type 1 Bugs and Karmann Ghias manufactured between 1958 and 1967, specifically those equipped with swing axles.\n\nThis comprehensive conversion kit replaces the original drum brakes with a more effective disc brake system. It includes heavy-duty cast steel brackets, disc brake rotors with a 5x205mm VW lug bolt pattern (12mm threads), disc brake calipers with pads, emergency brake cables, and all necessary hardware and seals. The kit is designed with a zero wheel offset and is intended for use with 15\" wheels, ensuring no loss of fender or tire clearance.\n\nKey specifications for this kit include the use of DOT3 brake fluid and a 5x205mm lug bolt pattern. The manufacturer strongly advises that brake kits and lines be installed by a trained mechanic due to the critical nature of proper line length, routing relative to wheel travel and steering angle, and ensuring lines are free-flowing and free of contamination. Proper caliper bleeding is also emphasized as essential for safe operation.\n\nThis kit is specifically designed for Volkswagen Type 1 Bugs and Karmann Ghias from 1958 through 1967 with swing axles.","brand":"EMPI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52872029307192,"sku":"22-2905-F","price":764.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/rear-disc-brake-kit-7","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
