LT1 93-97 PBR brake differnces...

Are only the Calipers from a 93-97 LT1 PBR setup the same as the 89-92 PBR brakes ?

I have heard the rotors / cables / all other parts are different ?

Anyone know ? THANKS ~DaVe

In a nutshell, yes..only slight differences in the parking cable brackets and cable length.

If I understand correctly are you saying that the cables are the same for the 89-92 and the 93-97? Or are they different?

I ask because I just bought a set of 97 PBR calipers and I will be installing them on my car.

It will also depend on the year of the car they are going on. You can't use a '95 brake cable on a '90 car, different designs. On your '82, use a cable for a '89-90 car, first design. Also, when you buy rotors, buy them for the year car the calipers came off of.
