Edmonton,
Sorry, couldn't find anything by searching. I just got some brand new Hawk brake pads for a 92 given to me. Just wondering if the rear pads from a 92 will fit on a 91. I know that the 92's had dual piston calipers & the 91's have single-piston ones.

Any help would be appriciated.

Thanks.
 
Pop off the rim and the caliber and see if it fits.:thumb: It should only take about five mins to get your answer
 
Only the front calipers are dual piston in the 2g's . I have a wrecked 92 with ABS in my back yard and the front and rear brakes are the same as my 90's.

They will work just fine. 90-94 rear brakes were all the same. Front brakes went to dual piston calipers in 93 on the awd.

I guess that must have been an option in 93. The guy I bought my parts car off is building a 93 AWD and his front's are single piston.

I have a 93 TSI AWD, my front calipers are dual piston. Rears are single.
Don't know if it was an option or not..
I thought earlier 1G's upgraded to the 93-94 breaks because they came with dual pistons? and maybe larger rotors..

Owners of all '89-92 DSMs and '93+ non-AWD models (including 2G) can upgrade to 'Big Brakes'. '91-92 Galant VR-4s and all '93+ AWD cars come with 'Big Brakes' from the factory.

NOTE: Early '89's (before 4/1/89) had smaller front brakes which were upgraded during the model year run. All '90-92 FWD and 90 AWD share the same calipers. The calipers for the '93-94 turbo FWD models were upgraded to the larger, thicker single-piston caliper design of the 91-92 AWD cars.
