I can't confirm...however if anything you can still put your new pads on and re-use the brake hardware. Be sure to lube the hell out of the hardware with the anti seize stuff, and don't be afraid to use the anti-squeel stuff on the backing of the pads.
Last thing...goto Sears and pick up a brake pad spreader. Tt looks like a metal backing pad with a twisty knob.
This will save you a **************** load of time and is worth the $9.99
I can concur with the brake pad spreader, but I used a ghetto method of pliers and the old brake pads, lol. I just put pliers in before I took the old pads out and spread it that way since the old pads are worthless anyway.
