Rear Caliper Location
The need for the calipers to be on the front is the lack of room to mount the lines in the rear. The coil over gets in the way of the line, once they are on the front you have better clearance and can use shorter lines (the lines supported for the kit work with the calipers on the front). This is the opposite side of where they are stock so you will need to swap them if using a donor axle. I found this out after completely rebuilding my mine. Drain the axle, remove the axles, swap the brakes. This should be in the build manual!!!
