My 1981 300SD came with ATE calipers. I bought reman calipers for both fronts. A local parts store gave me a Bendix caliper for the front left and said the ATE caliper is on backorder from the supplier.

I wasn't able to gather a concrete answer after searching, but is it okay to have a Bendix and ATE caliper on the front brakes? The first thing I noticed was the brake pad retainers are different, but I'm not sure if having the two brands will actually affect my braking.

Thanks!
