Front Brake Calipers - is this a pair?
My front brake calipers appear to be identical rather than handed which puts the bleed nipple to the bottom on one and points the hoses in opposite
directions. I've spun them round every which way but keep getting the same result. Is this normal? am I missing something obvious?
confused!

Sorry Mate, but I think you know the answer.
Do you want me to confirm it?

Caliper is to the rear of the upright, bleed nipple to the top. Think that makes both calipers left hand side ones doesnt it?

Yes, as I thought!
They're from the same car too.
Anyone got a spare left caliper, or a right, I'm not fussy.

They're both lefts, then aren't they?
I need to get a matching right hand one or a new pair. Bu**er!

If they are used I would use them as exchanges for a pair of refurbed calipers.
