rear brake pads

Hi guys, I need a set of rear brake pads for my build, but no idea what they came from, the local motor factors wont open the boxes so I can compare with my existing pads

they only work off the reg number or model etc, the wet behind the ears sales guy looked rather stramge when I said its a Q plate, tried to tell me I must have read it wrong LOL

I know the whole back end is from a sierra LOL

the diff is a 7.5" 3.92 non LSD, discs are solid, from memory I think I remember the seller saying that it came from a twin cam engine sierra??

according to the car place there is 3 different types, I have looked on ebay etc, but most are just generic photos of the item so no good for comparison

anyone offer any advice on finding the right ones???





heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it breaks, hit them with it
