QUOTE And it's actually a little easier if you remove both bolts and hook the caliper onto the strut spring. Just MO. This is what I've always done. Take out both bolts and take some wire and hang the caliper on the spring. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
