Machining drums to be used as hubs?

[mabbo]

hey guys,
would this work?

if i used a stock vw 4 stud disk or drum machined down to use as a hub with a porker vented disk, then have the 4 stud vw pattern put into the disks. a early 944 caliper and mounting bracket.

i want to keep 15" vw pattern wheels...

cheers

Hey Mabbo,

I've got a set of early single-piston sliding calipers if you're interested.

hey dorigtt
i guess the postage from america would be a fortune, im in the uk so would probrally be easier/cheaper to get some from over here...
cheers for the offer though.

Naw! Postage is nearly free... I'll just scan them and email them over to you

can anyone see why this wouldnt work?

vw 4 stud drum or disk machined down to use as a hub
get a 944 disk re-drilled to 4 stud vw pattern
bolt the 944 disk up to the back of the "hub" like Steve C's method
regular 944 mounting bracket and single slider caliper

this should give me vented disks and still use vw 4 stud wheels?
