since the SOA on the back has taken my e-brake cables to their limit, something has to be done. they need to be re-routed anyway because of the 1-peice d-shaft.

so I'm messing around under there today pulling the rear 3rd, and I pull the calipers off and the shafts out and notice that the caliper mount looks like it will work the caliper mounted upside down.

I grab the pass side caliper and bring it over to the drivers side, mount it upside down and on the rotor and everything. the brake line goes in fine, everything clears, and it puts the e-brake cable coming over the top of the axle and springs (out of harm's way) and it looks like it win me part of my e-brake battle. It looks like there will be sufficient e-brake cable length, which will save me some headache. The brake line doesn't seem like it will be vulnerable because it is still behind the axle tube.

so, is this a bad idea? will it not bleed properly? I have a friend who runs an auto shop and he can vacuum bleed it if necessary.
