Sanity Check please! ...size of rotor/piston count

Hello,

Please verify that I am correct with the following statements:

1. My 91 TPI 305 with front disk and rear drum has 10.5" rotors with single piston calipers....

That's really it...

Were there ever any dual piston 3rd gens produced?

If you are interested in upgrading to a 1LE type of front brake system, but don't want to spend that kind of money, then check this thread out.

If you are thinking about upgrading your front brakes, it wouldn't be a bad idea for you to read all 3 of the sticky threads in this forum on brake upgrades. Lot's of reading, but well worth it. Lots of hours of research and hard work went into these threads and the info contained in them.
