Installing a Pirate Jack disc brake set up and wonder which is correct. Calipers to the front or rear? Also using a complete QA1 front suspension with their sway bar. Any advantage either way?
 
This a big bolt kit? If so they can go in any location. Most will put them to the rear in order to clear a sway bar.
 
This is a small bolt set up although I am using the large ball joint style spindles. I was told by Pirate Jacks if I want to change to big bolt pattern later on I only have to change rotors to do so. Going to mount the calipers in the rear. Thanks Guys
 
I would install them whichever way puts the bleeder screw at the top. Some kits have the bleeder screw on one end and a plug on the other so you can swap them, but I don't know which kit you have.
 
My setup.
