I changed my rotor and brake pads on one side, worked beautifully, YAY. On the other side my calliper wont sit right, I even went and took off the brake pads AND the rotor and tried to fit the calliper... still no dice. I'm really getting tired of this not working! any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If someone is willing to talk with me over aim email me.
I can get the bottom bolt in, but the top bolt will not go in straight because the calliper is not in the right position at the top, gah!

Ok, top and botoom bolts are ine and it doesn't look the same as the other side so I'm not sure if it is on right, I would imagine thet if both bolts are in that it is in right but I can't understand why either side would be different. :/
On a side not, I have no idea what I did differently to get it to fit on the way that it did.
Do the opposite sides of the front look differntly or should they be identical?

FINALLY fixed, weird *** callipers. I think the machanic that changed my ball joints might have loosened up the nut that connects the fluid line to the calliper because it was leaking when i was done and unususally loose.... bastards.
Thanks for your help guys

There's a little steel tube that the caliper bolt goes through that needs to be pushed into the caliper body a little bit.
It's got a little rubber boot over it.
