Bought from eBay. Seller insists it is for the side it was listed for but I think it's the other.....

Which side do you think this is for? Mk1 sierra

normally blead nipple points upwards when fitted 

So that would make this a left hand caliper?

 

I bought a pair recently. Not eBay. They were also marked for the opposite sides. I just fitted them correctly with the bleed nipple pointing up. Can't explain why they are marked incorrectly.

Hi Jon,

Yes, that looks to me like it definitely belongs on the left side of the car.

 

That's exactly what I thought.  I ordered a right side caliper, which sure enough has a letter R embossed on it but it is a left side.  I thought I was going mad or put my original calipers on the wrong side or something but I've just found a  caliper on autodoc that says it's for the left side, has an L embossed on it but is definitely for the right of my 2b.  😵‍💫

You would also not expect the brake pipe to go in from the bottom, they are usually also on the top or straight into the side of the piston
