Necessary to remove caliper to roll front fender?
I rolled my fronts this morning but I couldn't for the life of me get the 2 bolts that hold my calipers off so I just rolled what I could. Do I need to go back, remove the caliper and finish the rest? I got it rolled to about the 10:30 position.

you shouldnt need more than that provided that your alignment (caster primarily in this case) isn't completely out of wack.

Just had it aligned last week. Caster is within spec. Camber is at -1.3F and -2.6R. Hoping to lower it some more now that I have more room.

that's not bad at all, mine is maxed out for positive camber and i'm still at -1.8/2* front and -3* rear.
