86 Rear Brake Pad Question
Just had the rear brakes serviced on my 86 and noticed the pads only contact the outer 2/3 of the rotors. I don't recall if this is how it looked before the brake job. Is this normal?

No. But as the pads wear it should cover 90% of the surface. What does the inner surface look like? The caliper should self-adjust center and flush to the rotor if the bracket is on true and the floating pins are not siezed up.
