Brakes problem

Are the front calipers attached by two threaded bolts, or by one threaded bolt and a pin, to the yoke?

They are attached by two bolts that the caliper is able to slide on. There are spacers built around the bolts themselves. They are available at auto parts stores.

See the picture below, it shows the bolt/sleeve
