Going to tackle the front calipers

Well my pull when braking was from two things:

1. A steering damper that is completely shot

2. A sticky caliper up front. (This was discovered by uneven wear on one rotor, and is the major factor in the pulling)

I was able to get Crown rebuilt ATE calipers for 40 dollars each, so I decided it was time to replace both front calipers.

I also bought new pads all around, as rotors have been recently replaced.

Any special hints for these calipers? Or is it just the simple take off, put on new one, bleed, and go routine?
