There is no list of common parts you can use to bolt on Audi front
brakes. Here are the main issues.

The 80-85 will need the spindles/uprights changed to 86+ ones.
15" or larger wheels are needed for clearance.

The Audi brake calipers use a carrier with holes for a different bolt
pattern and bolt size for attaching to the upright. These holes need to
be drilled out precisely to fit the Vanagon upright bolt pattern.
Spacers are needed to correct the caliper offset to the rotor.

All the 2wd Vanagons here use a one piece front rotor/hub with the wheel
bearings. The big brakes use a separate rotor that mounts to a bearing
hub from a South African Vanagon. (Syncros don't need this)

Here is a link to where to buy the kit for 86+ 2wd vans.

Here is the same kit for earlier vans, with 86+ spindles/uprights included.
