The Syncro and 2wd definately take the same brake pads.  The 698 middle
series versus 615 simply denotes a set or kit.  The 115 vs 151 looks like an
error to me; someone juxtoposed the numbers, as there are no 115 brake pads
that I know of.  If your pads are nothing like what you need, then the only
possibility I can think of is that you have '80-85 pads.  If we shipped you
those by mistake (and they are still as-new), we will exchange them
regardless of how long it's been.  But if you do in fact have '86-91 pads,
they will fit Syncro.
