Parts are sometimes tricky and not what they appear . These days I am amazed when things come as ordered , or even close . I have seen serial numbers and cast marks that have been filed/ground off . Some of the "old trusted" brands mean nothing in regards to integrity . Cardboard boxes are being replaced with plastic bags with no markings whatsoever .It's crazy !
I thought there used to be "standards" , but anything goes these days .I get parts from all over , and there just is a built in default that includes getting the wrong part .Sometimes I return them , sometimes I keep them .Sometimes I get a real good deal , then order another and they send me a bogus part ! Same vendor , different order .
Good luck with the rear brakes , chances are you will never have to do them again unless you keep the car for 300,000 miles !!
