'91 Firebird Rear Disc Brake Question

What other years are compatible with the disc brake assembly on a 1991 Firebird? I want to make the conversion to discs, and need to know what to look for in the junkyard.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.
