PBR Rear Calipers: Years of Production?

I've got PBR rear calipers on the Dana 44 I swapped in a few years back.
What I don't know is what years were these calipers were original equipment on 3rd gens. When it comes time for new pads, I've no idea what to look up.
I'm reasonably sure it's only the later years but not 100% certain.

89-92 and 93-97 are the same with minor cosmetic differences

Thanks for that everyone.

At some point I may actually get them to work as they should. I have some work to do with the prop valve and/or master cylinder. There's plenty of good info here that describes what others have done to bring the rear disc swap (combined with the LS front upgrade) up to it's potential. I have the annoying "can't stop the rear wheels with the car on jack stands" condition.
