I merged the Lowering Kit thread started by Txraider75 from Gerneral Raider Discussion into this one since they were all based on the same thing.

Also, to make it easier on yourself, when you put the wheel back on, take the brake pads out for the caliper, then re-install after the wheel and caliper are in place.

Do you have to pull the wheel to get to the shock?  Which kit requires that?

I don't think I did.  Sorry for the confusion.  He also stated he had a 240 to install.  So he might as well pull the rear wheel, it may make things a little easier to see.
