Will my Vin number tell me whether I have Steel or Phenolic Piston Calipers or do I have to take of the wheel for inspection? I was told there were 2 different brake pads.
I was trying to buy pads at O'riellysThe VIN won't tell you this. You'll have to remove the piston from the caliper to find out. Who told you that there were two different parts? My experience is that these pistons are made of metal. Caliper pistons can be removed to fit new seal and dust boot; an easier way is to buy rebuilt calipers, with return of your old ones as cores.
