Question Brake caliper parts question.

OK, so it's been a while since I took my front end apart. What parts do I need to mount the calipers. I've got the bolts and the "O" rings. Is there a metal bushing and/or spacer?

Each bolt has a bushing that the caliper slides on as well. Usually a rebuilt caliper comes with the bushings installed. (piston side) Thier outer diamater is the same as the bolt head and the inner is a lillte bigger than the bolt shaft. I belive they are about an inch tall standing on end. Be sure to lube up the o-rings with silicone lube so the calipers can "float".
