Hey Steve,
It sounds like you're talking about the rear pads, correct?  When you order your pads you tell Porterfield they're for a Pantera and need the locating pin, and they will come with it, for no extra charge.
I'm sure they'll swap them out for you.
Cheers!Garth

   Hey!
   Just received a new set of AP63 pads and was dinking around with the
   calpers checking some fitment....and found that the new pads are not
   drilled to accept the guide pin?!!?    Without the pin, it would, to
   me, appear that the pad would be able to walk up/down...in/out about
   1/4 inch, putting them off center of the pistons....which doesn't seem
   like a good way to operate a caliper.....
   Can any Porterfield users comment?     I have pinged Porterfield
   also...... Just trying to figure out if I need to toss these back in
   the mail.......
   Always something.....then you find something else....!
   Cheers!  Have a great holiday weekend!!!
   Steve
