Re: right/left/shouldered bolts
The calipers must be indexed R or L to ensure that the caliper pistons/shims have the cut-outs correctly positioned on the lower, leading edges.zabo wrote:i know on the late bays the shoulders are supposed to go on top. but whats the difference between right and left calipers? why the shouldered bolt?
