I can't figure this out.  I have a 1984 and have a sticky caliper.  So, I
ordered new calipers.  It seems there are two varieties of calipers: ATE
and Girling.  I first ordered the ATE and they didn't look right so I
ordered the Girlings and now they don't look right either.

The problem seems to be that my current calipers have the hydraulic line
coming in at the top and both the sets I ordered have the hydraulic input
on the center of the caliper.  I don't get it.

Anyone else encountered this problem?

Thanks!
