When installing the rear axle...
Is it necessary to have the rear wish bones attached first? I'm about to install the rear but it won't have the brakes on at the moment because I need to lap the axle tapers.

No it's not necessarily but easier if you wish to deal with the forward attaching bolt. You. An install the radius rods with the long forward backing plate bolts and put the brakes in later

It seems to me that if there are 2 ways to do a job, someone on this forum will come up with a third!

No on the third way, it's the onlyway :-)
