Default Rear calipers

What's the difference between 2wd and 4x4 rear calliper's and carriers, I know the 4x4 uses vented discs. Are the calliper's wider to fit over the thicker discs.

Will 4x4 discs and calipers fit on 2wd car.

Yes, 4x4 calipers and carriers are wider to accomodate for the wider discs. The 4x4 discs and calipers with carriers are a direct fit on a 2wd.
