they look like the ones I pulled from a 74 Satellite. Single piston sliders.
What are they on and whats the rotor diameter?

They are on an early b-body. I don't know the diameter.. maybe 10 1/2.

It would be nice to know what I've got so they can be serviced

Those are what's known as "PIN TYPE" calipers.
Appears that you have a 2 piece rotor.
Meaning a rotor,and hub, assembly.
If it is a two piece rotor, that style brake was used on the 70-72 B and E body line of cars.
Rotor diameter in pretty much commonly refered to as the 10.8 inch diameter rotor.
Hope it helps.

Hard to tell without additional pictures.

Because you have front mounted pin type calipers, they are probably '70-'72 B/E body (1 1/4" inner bearing ID) or '73-'74 E body (1 3/8" inner bearing ID).

The calipers are from the '70-'72 time period?

Yeah, thats what I meant...pin type
The set off my 74 B were close to 12".
These are from a 71 and close to 12" also:

Side view and back view.

If you have 2 piece rotors, the brakes are definitely '70-'72 B/E body.

If you have 1 piece rotors, the brakes are PROBABLY '73-'74 E body.

The brake hose should screw directly into the bottom of the caliper (no banjo fitting).
