Brake Caliper Pins are different. One has a rubber sleve on it. It appears to provide more assistance in returning the pads to a "coasting" position after braking than does the simple pin which has no rubber sleve.
The caliper is mounted on the "FRONT" rim of the rotor.

Does the pin WITH the rubber sleve belong in the upper, or trailing position?
