Can anyone help identify this brake drum, it's off a trailer and I was told it was off a beetle but after comparing a beetle one to it its completely different. I'm told the stud spacing is approximately 95mm but cant confirm as I haven't measured it myself.  |

Early Beetle (five stud) hubs are 5x205 pcd. Later ones went to four stud and were 4x130 so if it really is 95mm then it's definitely not a Beetle

Hi, Where is the 95mm being measured? As it's supposedly a trailer hub and the fact it's five stud I would guess the 95mm is measured from stud to adjacent stud, which means it's Land Rover pattern of 5 X 165.1, commonly found on horse boxes and other heavy duty trailers.

lol. You need to measure from the stud to the space equidistant between the two studs on the opposite "side" of the centre bore, using the bore as the midpoint of the measurement. PCDs are always taken through the midpoint of the wheel/hub  for e.g. |

It looks like Colin is too close not to be right, unless there are PCDS only a few mm difference to 165.1 ... Hi, Where is the 95mm being measured? As it's supposedly a trailer hub and the fact it's five stud I would guess the 95mm is measured from stud to adjacent stud, which means it's Land Rover pattern of 5 X 165.1, commonly found on horse boxes and other heavy duty trailers. Colin Ideally on a 5 stud PCD the measuring tape needs to be swung around to the middle of the two opposite studs but looking at the photo if it's swung around it would be approx. 165mm |

 Have a photo of a land rover hub for comparison. Looks similar ? If so makes sense to use some google - fu to look into Ifor williams and Rice trailer hubs / brakes as these are the same PCD as Land Rover ones and would be common on old trailers as Colin said. James |

Measure the diameter of one stud,then the distance between two adjacent studs, and I will work it out  |
