UK 1302 spindles...
Oh, yea....forgot something...
I was wondering how hard it would be to get my paws on some 1302 spindles that are stock on UK spec supers, the ones with provisions for calipers. I like this rather than some adaptor bolted to the existing spindle...seems safer I guess. Can anyone help me with this one??? Thanks.

Good luck! I priced them at the dealership when I was in Europe back in 1997 and they are US$750 new.
The caliper brackets are okay, in fact the ones that are in the Topline Parts kit are made on these specs. Jon @ Topline is the only one in USA that I know of who owns a sets of those Euro spec spindles. |

Whoa!
Do they not have pick-a-parts over there??!! I was hoping I could find a good ol' chap to see if they could find a set next time they're at a junk yard or such. nevermind I guess.

Yea that's true, after I heard the price I didn't even have him check if there were available.
Okay, I just looked up my notes, from 1997... part number 135 407 311 list price each US$415.90 |

Honestly, it was so long ago, I don't remember. However, since I'm a 1303 'kinda guy' I'm sure that's for the 73-79.

I thought early -74 (positive roll radius) 1303 (Supers) had the same front end as 1302?
We do have junk yards but not many Beetles in them!
