Hi,

I purchased a holden drover 1987 which had a rear disc conversion. Now my pads are finally worn and I have no idea what brake pads will fit the rear discs.

Wondering what are some common rear discs etc used in this conversion?

I have already tried sierra front pads but they dont work.
Any help would be great.

Regards,

Tim

A photo of the caliper might help.

There is no brand or part number on the pads as it seems to have worn off. There is a number on the caliper but all the research I have done hasnt been able to find a specific pad or part number for the caliper and pads. My next point of call is to take a pad in to repco or even a brake specialst and see if they can figure it out.

Don’t bother with Repco, I’d go straight to a brake specialist
