RE: Disc brake backing plates

[Kevin Merkley <krmerkley@xxxxxxxxx>]

I got the ones off the donor car and they are rusted to the point of 
falling apart.

I may try the junk yeard before coughing up $69 for a new set.

I wonder if there is a newer vehicle that uses the same backing plate?  
A truck for instance.  Anyone know?
