[T3] rear disk brakes


All I did was buy CB Performance roto-hub kit for IRS Beetle and
bolted it onto by fasty.  E-brake cables that come with the kit are
too short, so I just rigged my existing cables to the caliper lever. 
I was worried about front/back balance, but upon driving the car for
the first time down the gravel driveway, I locked up the brakes and
the fronts locked first.  I did not change master cylinders or install
a bias valve.  I did install CB's stainless steel brake hoses.  I am
very happy with four wheel disc brakes and it was easy.  I hope this
clears things up a bit, but my car is not a daily driver, so I don't
know if that makes a difference.  Maybe I should research a different
master cylinder, but I am not concerned at this point.  Although, I
would like to find a vacuum assist master cylinder so I could have
power brakes.
Sorry I am so late with this response, but I no longer have internet
access at home and I am only working three days a week, thanks to the
dreaded economy.
