I have their kit on my Superbeetle and it installed great and always has had
good brakes since I put 'em on.

Received a note from aircooled.net that their disc brake kit is back in
stock. John assured me that it's the good stuff.
As soon as the budget allows this is where I'm going for the brakes.

I did this a number of years ago with my daughter's '74 and was very
pleased with the improvement in braking. I bought a new beam with the
spindles to mount the calipers and wish to buy a kit with stock hight
spindles. If memory serves me right this kit came from Aircooled.net but
I see that currently their kit is on long-term backorder.
After some searches I find the kits but am VERY leery of the quality
after
looking at a video of what looks like the locator pins flexing under
pressure and the author commenting on the poor quality of the
EMPI-branded
kit.
Looking at the CB Performance kits - anyone have experience with them or
any other kits? Cost is NOT a major factor - safety and longevity is.
