Great updates guys!
I don't mention BFH Snomopar 'cause that is an advanced experience tool in my opinion -
Newbies can REALLY screw stuff up with one!

Real good tip 2 Darts! I forget that some people mount the Calipers in reverse.

dodge71demon; Seems to be prefered backwards (Caliper in rear) to clear the
Sway Bar with Factory Sway Bar Lower Control Arms.
Just beware when mounting them this way of the bleeding issue mentioned above.

Agreed, point well taken.

Although it may come in handy to avoid chewing up the BJ grease boot if a rookie decides to reverse caliper location.

The top of the spindle is real accessable but as you say, proper BFH control is a must because it is the top your banging on. swinging from the ground, the fender lip can jump right into the flight path... uh, oh.

Great thread and I'll be referrencing when I get to the assembly list... 'still on the parts list.

Thanks for taking the time.
