    I am trying to finish a front brake that that someone else started. I am working on 2006 GP GT. My question is do the wear sensors on the brake pads go on the inside or outside of the caliper? Should they be up or down? Also the two caliper slide pins are different. One is solid and the other has a little rubber bushing on the the end so what position do the guide pins go in?
    Any help would be appreciated

    Wear noise maker normally goes on the inside, doesnt matter if it's on the top or bottom. One is will be top and other bottom I think.

    Just from off hand knowledge and doing many brakes jobs I think the rubber piece on the end usually came from the top, but alot of cars are different. In the end I'm not sure it matters but stick em in the caliper and see if the one stops short on the top or bottom. And if they don't, it makes no difference.

    I believe the pins will fit either way I was just not sure of the correct position for the one with the rubber bushing
