caliper issues

OK, here's the short version. I ordered the 6-lug spindle kit from cpp a few months back, and for some reason I was having credit card issues. Well I had to cancel the order. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago, I got a settlement check from my workman's comp. insurance and it was quite a bit more then I was expecting so I reordered the kit. I finally got time to get out and get busy on it. Everything is on and looks great, except the calipers. The right one seems to either be a different casting or the wrong one all together. It is about a 1/4" narrower at the pad seat. I was just wondering if anyone else has run in to this problem before. I emailed Jeff, and I hope to hear back from him sometime next week. Here is a few pics of what I mean. Sorry they are so big, it just makes it easier to see the issue this way.
