Hey All. First off,...I did do a search on this topic and there's a load of information on brakes all-right, but I didn't find where swapping front calipers to the rear is discussed. It seems that I have read about it somewhere, and I mocked up one of my spare trailing arms with a core front caliper and it looks like it will work. I don't want/need the parking brake function and the front calipers are lighter without that mechanism. Is there anything I should know before I proceed with the swap? Thanks for any advice. Regards, -K-
