Rear disc when putting an 88 9 bolton an 89
My car is an 89 and has the factory pbr rear disc and a 9 bolt. Well the 9 bolt died and I found a good 9 bolt out of an 88. It has disc but of course the old style. How hard will it be to switch the old calipers out with the pbr setup?
Thanks
Thanks

Worst thing is, you gotta pull the axles to swap the backing plates. Other than that a piece of cake. And that's not even THAT bad. So you'll be OK.

So it will be a direct bolt up swap?
