OK, I have been working on Saabs for many many years (99's) Now I have a 69 96 and I am replacing the brake hoses all around. Well, while I am at it I decide to check the front disk pads. I have a set of brand new ones and a few set of use dones which came with the car. Well, These hsoes are thicker on the botton that the top or vis versa and it appears the shoes are either Right or Left - not either. The way the caliper works, you can only get the pads in one way.
Am I going crazy here or do I need to get pads for this car in Right or Left sets? This is too wierd. HELP? Am I missing something here. Why are these pads not even thickness top to bottom???
