Brakes

Hey Guys,

I bought 1998 roller T/A and the man said some things were changed out on it. These are the rear brakes that are on it now. They are not 98-02 rear brakes. With that being said what are they? How can I tell if it is even the factory axle housing ??

Those appear to be the factory rear brakes from an LT1 powered 4th gen.

That is what I was thinking.
Now how can I tell if the rear housing has been changed. My understanding is that the 98-02 rear is wider than the others.

No the 93's and up are wider than the older 3rd gens.
