well i can say they most certainly will work...done it....correct, i don't
know, if you read my post you will see that i did indeed put rears on the
front, as i was told that they were the same...could have been mis-informed,
however they do work...Scott, you have them there lay the "new" ones on the
old ones and check for diameter differences...i do know the wheel cylinders
were different front to rear....
