Re: [Tech] Replacing Rotors... 84' 8v

[Chris Jung <palace_master@yahoo.com>]

I ddidn't know that there are different pad and rotor
types for '84's.  My '84 is a late model because it
has a 1.8 litre motor.  I think that if yours has a
1.7 litre motor , it would be an earlier model.  Bring
along a jack to lordco, buy the stuff that you guess
will be right, then take a wheel off and compare the
parts.
