if they mounted, you put put them on right. If not the slide pins would've been on the outside and they couldn't mount. O.

Off the top of my head, I think the pins are different lengths. So use a screwdriver or something to probe them out to see which hole is deeper.

Bottom caliper slide pin has a bushing, top doesn't. Swap the pins from top to bottom - well I guess you probably can't do that. The pin bores are probably different sizes and the one with a bushing wont' fit in the other bore. I just throw away the pin bushings on personal vehicles and would leave it as is.

XT6 brakes are the same as EA82. Same calipers and front hand brake set up.

That water pump difference is for the V belt and the flat ribbed belt. And the caliper piston is probably an early EJ unit. I’m not sure about the XT6 front calipers, as I’ve never seen a set, but if the handbrake is on the rear of the XT6, you might have that front caliper piston type. Cheers Bennie

Dude, if you are in the rust belt....(As so is I) you must bathe everything with ANTI-SIEZE.......... I ran those cars..... a long time.... but it was because of a couple of preventative factors.... Anti-sieze everything!........ even clips....... like ebrake clips...... and the brake hose clips on struts.... anti-sieze.... and the metal around the brake hose. where the clip sits.... anti-sieze.... Rubber..... bathe in brake fluid......... flex line exteriors.... bathe in brake fluid........ Are you interested in any body parts? even mechanical parts... I have some........... my cars sadly are done......... they made it over 300k........ I rebuilt them once or twice..... finally the wheel wells went..(on my last one was gunna fix them but, got something with next to no mileage.........so..... should just let them go.........). there was one car I put new wheel wells in......... think I got 307K out of that one....... regarding cams seals(the o rings)....... I always see them leaking......... I do a timing and belt and then in no time they are leaking..... I think they were a bad design....... those motors at less than 50k would leak from the cam seal...(o-rings)........ So....... I started using anaerobic sealant on them.... if you are not familiar with this stuff... I can find some and send a link.... There was a time... when I had a timing belt tensioner seize........ if you will have the car for a while..... worth replacing them and the idler gear........ you can get two runs... out of the tensioners(two sets of belts -- 100k+ (spin the idler by hand - should not make noise) a new idler doesn't spin.(by hand well).. it is sorta tight......... .(replace that stuff and the motor will be way quieter......) Yeah, I lost my covers..... threw them under the work bench just in case........... never missed them... best thing I ever did.... without the covers on....... a timing belt job... is between twenty five and forty five minutes in length........ and I have been stranded......... and grateful....I had no covers on...... regards, Micky

The parts you mention would NOT be happy about road spray. Unless you live in L.A. and drive on pavement every day, I would always recommend running the belt covers.
