rear end help
my 89 has an unknown rear in it and the only break pads i can use are the front ones after i wear them down half way,i can switch them to the back and they work,besides that no break pads will work,also when i do switch front to back the pads still drag a little on the rotor

Re: rear end help
Only two types of braking systems: iron Delco-Moraine calipers with 10.5" rotors (82-88) and alum PBR calipers with 11.7" rotors (89-92). Purchase the appropriate pads. There'll always be a bit of a drag.
You can see what PBR's look like in my vbGarage (icon next to my online status).

Re: rear end help
my rear breaks are the same as the front,just seems like either the rotor is to wide or caliper pistons dont open far enough

Re: rear end help
And even the above may not be sufficient. For those who haven't seen it, here's the recall:

I had a rear bleeder leak all the rear fluid out of the master & that was 1 scary ride going to get a new bleeder & to where I could get a 2nd person to help bleed the brakes. Yeah, I shoulda just bought Speed Bleeders but didn't.
