Moved to proper forum

I'm gonna guess top pic is front, bottom is rear. You can verify against pics on Stoptech website.

Mounting holes are obviously different -- surely you can hold them up to the front/rear mount points on the car and tell which are which?

^negative ghostrider.


Top pic is the rear bracket...and it is also the smaller caliper.

The rear bracket has a relief in it that the OEM mounting post goes into. The fronts just bolt on line normal.

well, I had a 50/50 chance. It was hard to tell which one was larger without them both in the same picture. The bottom line is that you can't mount them in the wrong place because of the mounting holes.

lol yea i thought the same thing. these arent my brakes. my brakes are stoptechs and have the same brackets, but i have 4 pot all around so it was difficult for me to tell. yesterday i jacked up the car and placed the caliper (the top picture) up to the front bolts and it looked good to me. but i wasnt 100% sure and from what you guys are telling me i wouldve shipped someone the wrong brakes lol. that wouldnt have been good. thanks for the help guys!
