Are the calipers the same as...??

I just bought an '82 F150 2wd that was converted to a 4x4 with the parts from an '88 F150 4x4 and the front drivers-side caliper is bad. I found a deal on ebay for a pair of front calipers WITH new pads for an '86 F150. The part numbers the seller has listed are RC 7018 and RC 7017 and the seller says "these will fit 1986 4x2 and 4x4 thru 1991 4x2 and 4x4. That is far as my book goes and may fit newer but not sure."

Anyone happen to know if they will fit? If so, it's a darn good deal and I need to jump on it soon!

They won't. The 86 mounts calipers differently than an 88. The seller is wrong when he says the 86 parts will fit 86 to 91.
