Yes, indeed.
the vanagon caliper uses M16 bolts, the Audi M12. The Audi caliper sits a
bit lower than the vanagon�s because of this adapter. The dust palte behind
the disc has to be cut away a bit (the lower rear part) to make room for the
Audi-caliper.

The adapter is from heavy-duty steel and one-part, not welded or anything.
So is the rear with a new designed dust plate bolted on.
