Brake gurus,

I'm about to order new rear calipers from rockauto.com. It looks like they have different parts listed for the '95 and the 96'.

Does anyone know if there are any differences between the two I need to know about before I order?

i know that where i work they had two different part numbers for rear calipers


it was because one was loaded and the other was semi-loaded

Loaded and semi loaded? Are we talking the brakes or the mechanics. I need new rears too so this is news to me, sh*t I just bought some too.

i think loaded means it comes with new slider pins, codder pins, brake pads and the caliper comes greased. semi loaded i believe is just a caliper thats greased.

So loaded has nothing to do with compatability, good. So now why can't we use 95's on a 96. I await Nitefires response. :D

Ahh.. ok that makes sense. Well, I need everything so I suppose I'll just order the loaded kit.
