inner drivers/tripods got larger in 1986 Posted by DougM [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Hubs/drivers/brakes options?, Oren Kipnis ![]() ![]() |
according to thesaabsite.com > 900 75-85 Carrier Bearing Up to Vin G2009922 and Up to G3007065 and Up to G7011597
G = model year 1986
2 = trollhattan plant
3 = arlov
7 = nystad finland
0xxxxx = respective chassis numbers
There are a few other websites that will confirm the driver/tripod change sometime in 1986.
Back to brakes..........
My 86T with vented rotors needed a caliper a few years ago, and a buddy mailed me one. I tried to bolt it up and it would not fit, so I assumed he sent me a non-vented caliper. All I did was swap the yokes and it bolted right up....but I will have to agree that new brake pads are thinner for vented discs, but the thicker ones will still work after they have worn a bit.
