    Unless they put the support that holds the car under it. Then it's a real bugger to remove. Ask me how I know this...

    Seriously i'm with you on that one. It can be pretty scary just seeing how they are balanced. It almost seems like theyre just barely balancing and if you blew on the car it could tip over! lol

    Well, when you set a 2,000 lb car on a cable, it's kinda the end of the cable. Fortunately for me, there were two SE-i's right next to each other and I was able to get the cable off the other one. Woohoo! Now I just need to figure out how to disassemble the calipers so I can rebuild them.
