Default VW! Uprights/hubs etc anyone?

Hi

I am buying an old bay vw camper! (when the locost moves out for its mot soon) and was wishing to build a locost style a-frame front suspension for it but around the VW PCD112 hubs etc...
I am wondering if anyone has used the albeit fwd hubs/uprights from the VW family ...? its a long shot...

I need a easy... and strong becomes of the increased weight, 5 stud 112pcd hub assembly, the cortina one seems too weak, the sierra? well but I need to adapt the pcd etc.
I will need to "beef" up the a-frame section somewhat and poss arrange differant ball joint mounts etc?

Does anyone have any thoughts?

David
