Rear Brakes
Hi a quick question
What rear cylinders and brake shoes are people using on the type 4.
as i need to change a rear cylinder and fit new shoes as i have a leaking cylinder.
Front pads are they the same as T2 ones as these are low on the reading and one is binding.

Don't suppose you have a recommendation for the discs, do you? Same as 1302/1303?

Re: Rear Brakes
As far as I know they're bigger than any Beetle ones. 411 discs are the same as late Type 3 (1972/73), 412 discs are unique.
