Ted:

Thanks for getting back. I am planning on running the AC Industries kit as well. I know Andy at So Cal Imports (the "A" in AC), and he is a good guy making quality products. In fact, these are the parts that Vintage Speedsters uses when they run 5 wide options on its cars.

Glad to hear the install went well. Mine will be alittle more involved as I'm already running stock VW 4 lug discs up front. So going to the AC kit I will have to change out my disc spindles for drum spindles. At that point is also makes sence to change out the ball joints as I know both lowers are bad. But I am looking forward to the conversion as it will allow me to get rid of the 4 lug wheels and run the Mangels 5 wides with drum skins that I've been wanting to do since I bought the car over a year ago.

I'm now looking at black 12x1.5 studs to run all around with open lug nuts to finish off the look.

It's a work in progress.

Thanks, Grant
