Default backing plates

I just bought a 12 bolt from Midwest Chassis and I need backing plates for it. My car is a 2002, any ideas where I can get a set?

I see that. My car has TCS so it looks like I need the more expensive one. Does each side have a different part number because it says rear left?

Anyone know the difference between LT1, LS1, and v6 backing plates?

parts layout catalog shows NO difference in backing plates(caliper bracket and 'dust' shield) between 98-02 LS1 and V6 parts. LT1 rear discs use a totally different caliper bracket and dust shield.

Craigslist or Pick-N-Pull will be your best bet.

I ordered my MWC 9" and need to send them my backing plates also. But I have my stock 10 bolt which I'll be removing them from.

There are NO 98-02 backing plates or shields left. I purchased all of them 2 years ago that were available at any parts place or GM dealers across the country. We have since sold out, only used ones can be sourced right now.
