If you only getting the basic caliper, you need to know. The Girling and ATE will not interchange on the brackets. If you are getting loaded calipers, then all you want to do is match the pair. Both calipers do use the same pads.

Is there any practical difference (mounting, whatever) between Girling and ATE calipers on the '86+ brakes? FLAPS wants to know which type, which I don't know. Can I just give them a name to satisfy them?
