    Can someone confirm for me if the brake calipers on a 360 are interchangeable from front to back?

    For example, is the front left and rear right the same caliper? Is the front right and rear left the same caliper? Parts fiche shows different part numbers but they look the same.

    Same piston diameter, mounting?

    The reason I’m asking is because I was changing out my bleeders and one of them was cross threaded in and stripped by someone before me so I’m looking to replace the right rear with another caliper.

    I think they are..but jump on the Eurospares web sight and have a look at the part numbers for the front and rear calipers. If they are the same number then you are good.

    No. The direction of rotation is different front-rear.

    But isn't it right, that you can mount rear left to front right? This way you can keep the proper piston size where it should be.

    Not at all. The rear left caliper has the disc rotating down through the caliper - if it was mounted in the front right position then the disc would move upwards.

    True. My mistake in logic. When I was moving in my mind the the calliper I made my assumption wrong ;)

    That if we move rear left to front left? ;)
