Front Brake Overhaul | Karmann Ghia Restoration
Episode 3 of the 1964 Karmann Ghia restoration series.
The front brakes on this 1964 Karmann Ghia were in rough shape, and the wheel bearings were no better.
In this episode, I strip the front brakes down, replace worn parts, fit new bearings and seals, and adjust everything back up so this classic VW is one step closer to the road again.
These brakes were in pretty bad condition, and the bearings were in a real bad state. So out with the old, and in with the new.
