I've just got my late ('76) front brake calipers back from being rebuilt but I don't know which is the left (drivers) side and which is the right (passenger) side.
I can see a difference in that one of the bleed screws is recessed, does this go to the top or the bottom? Picture attached. Please can all respondents agree, I don't need anymore confusion! |

@flatsix
This is the piston orientation. If not installed correctly the piston tops will wear at an angle. Attached thumbnail(s) |
