As I prepared for my most recent inspection last November, I noticed my
front brake pads were worn about 1/2 way. Since I am here, where tangible
items are inexpensive, could someone give me the part number for the front
brake pads.
I think there is a Letter and 52 in it somewhere..maybe....I want the soft
wear out quickly kind that don't chew my rotors apart.

Thanks guys

Mike currently in Las Cruces..where the temps are as cold as home

GM started using those pads in 1969 on A body cars (Chevelles, Cutlass etc)
and as far as I know, continued using them well into the 90's on Caprices,
Buick Park Avenues etc. Easy to find at any auto parts store.
