According to this:

https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum2/HTML/136067.html

the equalizer part # 25512384 is the same across all years of Fiero.

This part number seems to be backed up in Fiero_1984-88_Euroamerica.pdf, on page 181

HOWEVER - every parts store website I've tried to order from tells me that this part is NOT compatible with my car.

I've got ever other darn part in this car, and I'm like five minutes away from finishing this part of the project, except my equalizer is rusted garbage, I can't remove the threaded rod from it.

Is this the right part, or not?

GM Parts Giant lists it as correct. Remember, GM used a whole bunch of what are called "parts bin" assemblies for our little cars. as such there are multiple listings as to which vehicle this part was used on. Since the fiero is somewhat an obscure car to most of the parts distributors (IE rock auto, O'Rielly, Autozone, NAPA and such) they don't always list the SAME PART as fitting the Fiero even though the part number matches.

I'd say you are probably safe to purchase. It's not an expensive part and worst you'd have to do is return it.

I never did say "thank you". I ordered it, installed it, and my brakes are flawless.
