guy on eBay is selling what I think you're looking for, at an inflated price...

this eBay seller has been listing a lot of T4WD parts for a few years now, but you can get 'em WAY cheaper if your local wrecking yard has a parts car available

https://www.ebay.com/itm/LEFT-HAND-FRON ... SwlfxXGpkH

https://www.ebay.com/itm/RIGHT-HAND-FRO ... Sw1DtXGpm3

this seller actually has 2 sets up for sale, listed individually, all at the same price

1987 Tercel DLX 4WD wagon, 6-speed manual, 274K -- got this one running Jan. 2015 (had been sitting for 2 years); this has been my daily driver since 2016

Hi, ty for the info, though it isn't what I'm looking for. The brake back plate dust shields are mounted on the rotor and made of sheet metal.

do you mean the shield mounted on the wheel hub (steering knuckle)? I do not recall anything actually attached to the rotor, that would be the disk itself.

I may have a set of the sheet metal Shields if you want them. they are on a set of spare hubs/steering knuckles I have in the garage. I can pull them and send them to you for a small fee.

Yes, my error, they are mounted as you described. My were no match for N.E. road salt.
