-Besides coil spring attachment, this Caprice rear is slightly wider than 2nd Gen T/A. Been a while since I compared axles between each, but the Caprice axle is close to 3/16" longer than 2nd Gen F-body.
-'88.5+ axles will be 30 spline c-clip design with 5 on 5 bolt pattern. -Posi will be light duty Auburn. On '96 Caprice rear disc calipers would have to examine them to see what they were, but doubt they will work. PBR's off late 90's Camaro's & Birds make for a cleaner swap on 2nd Gen Birds. Off the front, can pop the spindles, if you desire to go tall spindle-1LE rotor route. Make sure they are not scored where the bearings ride. Good luck.

The calipers have PBR made in australia cast into them here is a pic and the discs are the parking brake in drum style If the caprice rear is a true 8.5" then the caliper brakets should bolt up shouldn't they?

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
