[Shotimes] 96 SHO Brakes

[Carl Prochilo]

Christina,  Are you sure that is the right part number?  3529512.  The AZ
website does not show anything for that part.

And, given my experience of just yesterday, I will tell you with 99%
certainty that if you asked for brake pads for a 96 Taurus SHO, you will
get the 6014 part.  The reason is that the parts counter guy will look the
the car in his computer and that's the part number that will show up. 
Please recheck the part number stamped on the box to be sure.

Now, if you did get the wrong part, then maybe someone else can say what
problems that might cause.  I would have thought your son would notice a
fitment problem installing the pads.
