Yes they do, Also if you powdercoat or rebuild them make sure to take out the seals/ rubber before you powdercoat or you'll need to buy new ones. A rebuild kit is always a good idea.

Also make sure the pistons on both sides are the right size and matching because if you have a bigger one going again a smaller one then they :

#1 Will be really hard to pop in

#2 If you get them popped in with uneven sizing and you try to POP them out with a compressor this will not work, you will need to have wood inside to get hit by the pistons popping out and you will have to up the pressure on your air compressor to get them out if this occurs

But yes they are not both the same size

What he said, but you would have to be extremely special to not notice you're installing them incorrectly.

Apparently I'm special as well as I put the wrong year for the date, I will take a new picture in a bit with the correct date and upload it.

Many (not all of course) 4-pot+ calipers have different size pistons with leading/forward pistons being larger due to their supplying a greater percentage and more power of the initial stopping grip on the rotors.

These look nice and probably work just fine but they appear to be replica calipers. The brembo front calipers have the name raised on the caliper.

For me the replicas(A1 Cardone) have worked just fine but I only have a few thousand miles on them. Might want to change your price as they are available from rockauto for 300 (141 each).
