    i have all the parts to do a mk4 rear callipers on my mk2 16v but i wont to change to
    mk4 type hubs so i dont have to change the wheel barings ever time i change the disks
    i what i wont to no is watt car's have this hub and disk but in 100x4 stud
    do some seat's or polo's have this arrangement


    EDIT mk4 stub axles and hub do not fit polo or golf mk1/2/3 rearbeams or polo 6n stub axles
    thanks for that ryanp

    You need mk3 Seat Ibiza,they use the mk4 golf type rear calipers and are 100x4
    (wish i didn't weigh in the rear axle i had)

    Do the 5 stud stub axle and hubs bolt to a mk2.3 rear axle too??

    Either from a mk4 golf or a seat ibiza 5 stud.

    seems that thar might two ways of do this ether use a mk3 Seat Ibiza or Lupo/Arosa or Polo upto 2002 using the stub axle with the holes for the calliper carrie
    or use later Lupo/Arosa or Polo seat ibiza or mk4 golf stub axle and use a bracket from a lupo p/n6E0501466A or 6E0501465A dont no which one
    i am presuming that all bolt holes are the same but thay may not be
    and use the hub you whant 5 or 4 stud
    just bouncing ideas
    also depends on what i can get from scrapy
    will see what i can get from overprice on monday
    any ideas woud be appreshated

    EDIT mk4 stub axles and hub do not fit polo or golf mk1/2/3 rearbeams or polo 6n stub axles
    thanks for that ryanp

    yes the 5 stud hub shoud fit the polo stub axle
    the mK4 stub axle will fit but it has on holes for the calliper carrier
    the mk 4 has this built in to the rear beem
    hence the use of the polo stub axle

    EDIT mk4 stub axles and hub do not fit polo or golf mk1/2/3 rearbeams or polo 6n stub axles

    Would this be the same if I wanted to fit 256mm rear disks to my car with the brembo calipers from a Leon Cupra R??

    As the disks from the cupra would be 256mm and 5 stud, could I not use some 256mm 16V disks from the front of the mk2 to fit to the rear, thus making it 4 stud??

    Cheers
