Check out the write-up on 4dsc.com. You also need to unbolt the parallel links and the radius rod? Then prepared to have fun with the gland nut packing.

caliper, the huge parallel link bolt, and the smaller radius rod thingy need to get removed...then you can unbolt the 3 bolts in the mount, and get a HUGE set of channel locks to get the gland nut off...oh yeah, take off the spring and upper mount tooo
