Front & Rear Brakes

Hey guys,
I bought my car a couple months ago, and I looked at brakes 4wdb and the front ones are smaller than the rear. I thought that was supposed vice-versa. Anyone elses car like that?


Thanks
TPIGUY

For 1990 that is the way they were. The only way to correct it is to install the 1LE front brake upgrade.

Thanx,ANDYZ28

Yup, that's fine. If you notice though... the front brakes have a larger pad area than the rear.

Normal for your model year 10.5 Ft and 11.655 R. Be happy you have one of the better Disc brake systems on a 3rd Gen car.
