Not that I noticed. I had only driven it twice, but I definitely would have taken notice if the noise had been as pronounced then. That was mid-January. It sat for a while after that and I've had it up and down off the jackstands, including up for the last three days as I finished the caliper job.

I did start a separate thread for the grinding noise, simply because I thought it might be helpful if someone had a similar problem in the future, for search purposes: http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php?t=246992
