I think you guys are just talking about different brackets. Nate I think is 
talking about the bracket as the carrier that attaches to the caliper which 
holds one of the pads. I was just concerned the caliper mounting bolts to 
the strut housing had a different pattern. I guess they're the same 
pattern, if the calipers bolt to either housing. BTW, does anyone know what 
pattern those caliper mounting bolts are? I've seen 3.5" as a common 
dimension, anyone know for sure?
