Fuching Mount

[Timmy_Barns]

Hey Guys, Good News. I jsut bought some Porsche Fuchs for the Super!!! Ive been contemplating, what the easiest way to go about fittingt hem would be. I have seen the disc brake kits, and want those, but at the moment I dont have the funds, those will be here by the winter How much does it cost to have drums re-drilled? Would it be easier to get new non-drilled drums and have them drilled and tapped? I want to mount these cause they will be really cool looking and stuff. Thanks

depends who you go to on how much they are going to charge. around $40-$60 probably. blanks plus drilling will obviously be a lot more. cost of parts plus the same for drilling. if you have to do something before you can go discs (which i highly recommend), then just do the redrill and save the cash for the discs.

Re-drill my currant drums? Ok would it be possible for them to put studs in? and where should I take them, the VW shop, or a machine shop?

machine shop. pressed studs would be good. they just need to spot face the area around the hole for the stud to sit flat on. i got studs from NAPA last time. good assortment.

I recently saw in one of the US magazines drums for sale aleady drilled with the Porsche 5 lug pattern at about $60 ea, now if I could only remember where I saw it...but remember if you spend $120 on two rear dums that is 30% of the cost of a rear disc brake kit and the front are less...
