VictorOk quick question, don't think it matters but have a look at the pick below. At the moment on my car the 'stumps' stick out on the carriers the same length on each side over the disc, but check these out, they are different lengths??!!
Don't see how it would affect anything, but weird, image on left has longer than one on right, but apart from that identical.

Thanked 528 Times in 448 PostsIf memory serves some of the 302 carriers had the larger lobes some of them the smaller depending which model they came from (850, 70 series) Looks like you've just got a mismatched pair.

Thanked 242 Times in 185 PostsI might switch it if it bothers me to much with one of mine, but to be honest doubt it will, not that obvious
