Re: Help Check My Gear Pattern

Sorry, i have another dumb question. Does it matter which side the caliper brackets go on?

I got the passenger side together, but my driver side caliper has a little cast boss that is interfering with the mount bracket. One of the caliper brackets has "14023429" cast into it and the other has "14023430", but they look the same to me. I cant imagine what else would be causing the problem, but wanted to check before I go rip everything apart to swap the brackets.

I am usually a pretty good mechanic, but this job has absolutely kicked my butt... I have made every mistake possible to make and literally everything that can go wrong has up to this point, including now the brake caliper refusing to go back on the truck...

Thanks all for your help so far
