To remove the rear caliper, do I have to pull the axel shaft to get the caliper off or can I do it some otherway?

Easy, Use 1 allen wrench, 1 screwdriver. Pull the pin, drop the pads, use the screwdriver to slowly open up the caliper reinstall pads, reinstall pin, back on the road.

Should be a one beer job. ;D ;D

 ;D  But don't forget to use that screw driver to slowly open up the caliper....  turns into a six pack job real quick.   ;D

Let's say or put it this way, there ain't no such thing as a 1 beer job anymore. T-Bird sent my a copy of the manuel on how to do it. I figured there was a better way or easier way, just didn't see it.
Brad- I got both of my other res. covers in and will bring the TexasX one's your way next trip.
