The rears are easy if you pull off the rear wheels and get someone to give you a hand getting them straight.

Mine were really easy to install.

Also helps if you have a low-clearance screwdriver, something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Neiko-Pocket-C...9190106&sr=1-1

*WAY* easy. [puzzled]
I had the wheels off (painting calipers) and 'knew' to drill my own hole for the inboard screw (thanks to the forum! [cheers])

See show/shine for my experience.

I used my trusty Skew driver on a power drill. Everyone should have one they're great.

Why don't you be a jolly good fellow and post a link for the OP to your show/shine thread that you're referring to here instead of making him search aimlessly for it?

Break 'em loose NOW (and not wait until by the side of the road....)

Get a breaker bar and a pipe extension (or a dewalt[tm] electric imapct wrench )
