   | | Splines, brakes, swivel inspect/overhaul - what's involved? |  | 
 Ok so a wee bit of slop/backlash at the rear (when moving it with the wheels up it sounds like the reflected 'clunk' I hear when driving near a wall). 
 Got a full set of Ferodo brake pads to install as well and then there is the swivel grease situation to check at the front.
 
 Does anyone have a good list of do's and don'ts here and how best to disassemble/check/clean/lubricate/bleed/fix/replace/re-assemble/torque all of this? Or is it all along the lines of 'if you find a circlip, take it off', 'if you find a bolt, unscrew it' and everything makes sense in both directions?
 
 Special tools?
 Easy, but non-obvious ways to get around certain tasks?
 Tightening torques for all the bolts??
 
 I'm particularly interested in not stuffing up the brakes/brake hydraulics...
   
 Wisdom appreciated
