Dave-
You have to make sure that the smaller of the two pistons is the one that
hits first when the wheel rotates. I don't know if this makes sense to you,
but you may or may not have to swap calipers left to right- in my case, I
did. It all depends on whether your car has a leading or trailing caliper
orientation and depending on what the orientation is on the car from which
you got the calipers.
 Another lister answered the flare nut question.
