W123 : Which calipers do I have?

I'm looking to rebuild calipers on the next warm day, and I was curious if anyone could tell me how to destinguish ATE from Bendix, so that I know what to order. Is there a certain number on the part somewhaere? I notice that Fastlane sells an anti-rattle spring for ATE. My car does use that spring. Does that nessesarily mean that they are ATE calipers? Thanks

look on the rounded outward side of your front calipers...you should see ATE cast into it...don't bother with the back...I could not see anything on them....but the fronts are fairly clear to read
