If they are hard to find locally, order some up from Summit. They have a good selection of D-122 pads to choose from. Some stock replacement, some performance. That's where I got pads for mine, but I also wanted Hawk pads, not parts store pads. Mine were D-154 pads, but the older Caddy calipers use the bigger pads. Mine were the smaller '85 caddy calipers, obviously since it's on a smaller truck.
