Wrong caliper ?

Hi, I'm rebuilding a 1974 Targa (Base Model); after a complete teardown I'm putting everything back together. Did change the rotors, and sent out all calipers for rebuilt.

FRT RH re-install went well; but FRT LH is a different story.... I wasn't able to install the caliper because of interference with the disk. At first I thought it was a questing of the inner bearing not being seated correctly. Put back the hub on the press; nothing moved. By looking carefully at the caliper itself I've noticed that the clearance was about 0.100" less on the LH then on the RH

Casting #:

RH (ATE)
Outer: 45P
Inner: 10R

LH (ATE)
Outer I88
Inner: 33

Spacer thichkness is equal on both sides.

Lastly, the rotors removed (maybe because of wear were significantly thinner:

Old: 0.735"
New: 0.805"

Any guidance would be appreciated, Thanks

Have you talked to the vendor that did the work?
