Hi all.

Just to help others. (up here in Canada anyways)

At this page:

http://www.cip1.ca/SearchResults.asp?Cat=1214

listing says "80-92" for rear brake hardware. On my
81, pins that hold brake shoes in toward backplate,
are longer than what was supplied with hardware kit.
This has resulted in a PITA.

Not ragging on vendor. (well maybe a little ;^)  Just
letting others know that if they get the kit, the pins
may be too short. On that note....

Although time consumming, I have found that filing the
original long pins will make them fit the new cup.

Is this a bad idea? i.e. will this comprimise
structure/strength?

Will try local VW dealership for parts first ......
*sigh*....   ;^)

Cheers,
