2wd or 4x4 Cosorth Calipers???
I have been offered a set of front brake calipers for a cosworth. Only problem is the guys who is selling them doesn't know if they're for a 2wd or 4x4. I require a 4x4 set.
How can I tell??
All help apreciated.

4wd ones look like bigger versions of standard rst calipers.
Single pot slider.

4WD ones as said have 1 big piston/pot:
and 2WD ones will have 2 smaller pistons/pots either side of the disk face, 4 in all.
