996 brake problem

just fitted my spindles with 996 brakes on the front of a standard bug, have now realized there is a ridiculous amount of angle on the trailing arms(dropped 3 ") so have ordered some cb disk spindles for a ball joint front end , has anybody got pictures of how to do the 996 conversion as it looks a fairly tight fit , i had a look at sandeeps pictures and there does not appear to be a vast amount to mount a bracket on once you have clearanced for the disk, anyway any help will be appreciated,
cheers jon
(p.s set of bj disk spindles machined with brackets for 996 monoblock calipers for sale lol)

Speedy, have you talked to Lanner at Vdubengineering? He should be able to help, no problems.

Lanner has my parts right now for machining. I sent him '87 944 hubs, and CB dropped spindles for brembo turbo setup. By the way, if you don't have spindles yet, for non SB, CB Performance dropped thier price on spindles from $US199.00 to $US149.00.
