Default Rear control Arm question

Whats the difference if any between the rear control arms
from an 89 N/A with ABS and a 89 951 ?
I know they have different part numbers but was under the impression this was because they use different bushings.

Yep, the only difference between an 87+ M030 trailing arm and a non-M030 w/ ABS, should just be the bushing material.

Thanks!
So 951 calipers and rotors will bolt onto the 89 N/A without issues then.

Thanks again

The rear 951 calipers are a direct bolt on to the rear of any n/a 944. Just remember you need a spacer washer (1/2 inch washer works) between the caliper and the trailing arm mount.
