9 Bolt PBR Calipers

Does anyone have part numbers for the proper calipers for the 9 Bolt rear with the aluminum PBR calipers / Pads / Rotors. I want to make sure I am ordering the right stuff. Thanks

You will most likely get a new china part, if you can, rebuild your factory calipers. (if they really need it) Mine have 250k on them and are just fine.

Just a heads-up. The 9- and 10-bolt PBR braking systems are interchangeable. To that end, you may find some of the info/part numbers in the following link beneficial: https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/faq-...iscs-89-a.html

Right: calipers, pads, brackets, etc. interchange. Backing plates do not. But if your 89 already has those, you won't have to worry about them.

Thanks for the info, this is helpful.

My car has been sitting for almost 20 years, I figure they need replacing, but I will see if I can find parts to rebuild.
