I can't find it in the archived topics but it seems to me that I have seen it before. Just got som reman SS sleeved front calipers and want to know what the 2 copper washers that came with it are for?

I put SS braided hoses on a coupla months back and, if I remember correctly, they went between the front caliper and the hose.

Yes, they go between the hose and caliper. You'll see when you take the old caliper hose off. Be sure to put the new ones on or you will most likely have a leak.
