RA calipers are the typical/standard calipers right? like the ones that you need to pull off the rotor to install the pads?

chu, how's the 8th sound to you?
Dan, you gonna do your brakes this weekend?

on the RA calipers you only need to remove rotor to install pads, just the caliper.

Hey dan whatre you doing this weekend?

On the ra calipers, just remove the lower slide bolt and flip the whole caliper assembly up. This saves you alittle bit of time. Though, I'd remove both slide bolts just so I could reapply more sylglide to the slide bolts.

Chu, I'm gonna give you a shout later about that thing I mentioned on Sunday.
Sure
