caliper issues

[stealthy '69]

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.

And here's what I have done so far. Sorry there isn't any better pics, it got late and I got tired and lazy.

Matt,... I wonder if you got a 73-87 caliper for the "light duty" 1" wide rotors by mistake?
Your rotors are the 1-1/4" version.

Thanks, I'll definatly do that. This thing's been in the garage for over a year. I can't wait to get it back together and drive it again.

That's what I was thinking too. I email CPP@JEFF, I'm hoping he will get back to me soon so I can get it all figured out. I have faith. I have yet to be let down by them.

Well it looks like Jeff confirmed our suspisions, he said the one is a light duty car caliper. He's got one on it's way out to me. I gotta say, for all the bad things I've read about CPP, they are deffitatly going above and beyond to fix any and all issues.
