Default 86 Turbo brake pad size

Ok I got one for you... all of the books show the same pad front and rear. I tried to install the same pad in the rear, wont fit. The problem is length. They are about 1/8 of an inch longer then the front pads. The pads that are in there now have been ground down on the ends. I did a search and didn't find this issue.
The calipers are black calipers 4 piston, I assume they are stock.

Questions:
1. Anyone ever seen this before?
2. I noticed the shinny, Stainless steel, guide plates. That appears to be where the pads are hitting.? I will pull them out and do a good cleaning and check if they are bent.

Thanks
Steve

I just put my front pads in the rear so your should work as well. Double check it because you may be missing something.
