    I have a set of sway bars front and rear to install. The rear end has to be dropped to do this,, but if one side is dropped at a time, there should be no issues with alignment. Another thing is all new rotors and pads can go on.
    If we're looking for things to do,,, here we are!

    The entire cradle must be dropped to insert the rear unit David. Alignment process is a non-issue btw. First the cradle position is accessed; it is common for it to be positioned incorrectly from the factory.

    OK, if you can guide me through it and I don't have to get an alignment afterwards, that'd be fantastic.

    Well, I have to work the 28th until 4, so I couldn't get out there until 4:30. Would anyone still be there? I'd like to swap my mid pipes and I don't think it'll take long. If everything gets bumped into May I could spend the day and may decide to swap my passenger door hinge too.

    I suppose, but I would definitely need to see it done first (on someone else's car).

    It pays to take them off very carefully without damaging them (don't bend or crease). It's been well docuented some folks have discovered the 3M 2-sided tape has reacted with the finish, causing bubbles / pitting / orange peel. Some folks have elected to re-install the moldings as opposed to paying to have the surfaces wet-sanded (at best) or repainted (at worst). The proper (3M) closed-cell 2-sided adhesive to re-install is readily available...

    When I removed my mouldings I waited until a good hot summers day and parked the car so each side was in the sun. The moldings came off easily and the remaining adhesive was also removed easily. I did find pitting underneath but that was fixed. I was afraid of using a heat gun.
