Hello all, I have a polo 1.4 diesel 6n2 (not GTi) originally comes with drums on the rear, what rear axle fits so I can have disc brakes.? 

 

Cheers

First Welcome to the forum.

 

Your standard axle is the only one you need, you will just have to get the new stub axle/caliper mounts, apart from the discs & calipers, you will need new brake pipelines & different handbrake cables

My rear axle/beam is bent, so all of it is going to be replaced. Just need to know what bits fit. I know about changing the brake lines and handbrake.

In that case, just get an axle from a GTi (6N2) as it'll have the correct hubs already fitted, if you can't find one any 6N2 axle beam will fit but you'll need to obtain the disc hub units, try Stevens VW dismantlers in Essex
