944 brakes on a swing axle

[vw62rag]

flat/lanner thank you very much for the info. but now im kinda confused, i called a vw shop a few days ago, i told them i found a NA 86 944 and i was taking the rear brakes off, they told me to send them the backing plates and hubs to get some machine work done and they would bolt on...... any idea what they need to machine? im jus trying to find the simplest way to do this without having to find 2 different cars to get brake parts from. oh and who is MTB?
thanks for the help
this is actually for a 65 bus with a 67 bug swing axle trany (long axle. short spline)

IF you can get your hands on a 924S, then you have all the parts required for a NA conversion.

The 86 arms may or may not the the aluminum ones. I think the 944's switched from steel to alum rear arms in early 86.
