Those are for an electric car, not what you got. Post pics of your brakes. Everything.... And a shot of the on still put together. I looked at some of the other pics, and I think I know what parts are being used. This was made 30+ years ago. They didn't have those electric cars back then. Have NO idea why you thought to look there. The brakes are going to be from some common car,so that you could buy pads off the shelf, versus having to buy "special pads". Key item when trying to sell to a big company, low maintenance and easily obtainable parts.
EDIT DO NOT take the back brakes and put them in the front. Brakes in the front only and you will wreck quicker than $#!+..... If you can only have one set of brakes, IT HAS TO BE in the BACK.......

The differential is stamped 1-27-77..... So it was made in 77. You're kart is from the late 70's...... They still make replacement brake parts for cars in the 70's.... You just need to figure out what car. It's NOT pinto brakes....

He said fluid squirted out the back of one of the brakes. Needs a cylinder rebuilt....
Lol almost as old as my 39 year old father bwahaha
I talked to a guy selling a virage one of these in tx he said i needed the bleeder valve in them so i put though's in it stopped squirting out of two but the last one in the back on the back right side is missing the whole thing if you look at though's aluminum pieces in the picture i think they may go in it some how

There should be a bleeder screw just like those on each on the brake cylinders, and the one on the master.
