Audi 80 (FWD) rear drum to disc conversion...

[gerard]

someone's considering converting rear drum brakes to discs on his Audi 80 
front-wheel drive machine.

I spent time looking through ETKA trying to figure out what parts can be 
used that could be sourced locally. I'm in a country where the 80/90 is a 
very rare thing.

Some parts are available from the type-44, others need to be bought new, and 
the list's good friend Chris Semple over at Force 5 Auto has good prices on 
some other required parts.

But in all my looking and checking I overlooked the entire rear axle. Ooops.

Seems this needs to be swapped for one from a 80 with rear discs. I 
suspected it, but only noticed it when I finally got pics of the 80's drums. 
There's no mounting or the calipers on the axle.

Short of having to bring a complete rear axle into the country, what can be 
done with this to fit rear discs?

Doh! Typical dumb me.
