CAUTION: If more than one caliper will be off the vehicle at the same time, it is important that each caliper be marked or tagged indicating which corner of the vehicle it belongs on, prior to being removed. Do not allow calipers to get mixed-up. Except for piston size, front and rear calipers look alike.
