Need backing plate answers
I need to know if the backing plates are the same for a 90-92 PBR brakes and 93-97 PBR brakes? I have a set of brackets from a 4th gen rear that I was wanting to use on a 3rd gen car.

Cool. How are they different? I am going to purchase a Ford 9" housing and I was wanting to leave my rear intact. Do you happen to know what is involved in swapping the PBRs on to the 9" housing.

I have a Moser 9" housing in my 92 and wanted to retain the calipers outback. Moser supplied a diagram that you lay over your existing backplate then drill new holes to make it all work.

Do you have pics of the housing? I looked on your page, but there weren't any pics of the rear.

Those are what I need. I was under the impression that the plated were a direct fit. This was actually the first I had heard of redrilling the plates. I will have to call Moser and inquire about this. Thanks again.

Good Luck with calling Moser. I lost my Moser pattern paper and called to inquire about getting another one and the tech guy was like. We don't offer that for the 92. luckily I found it so I could do the re-drilling.
