Re: how to bleed front and rear brake?

thats alot of hard work, you u have to do is gravity bleed them...

simple open the resi fill it to the top and hook a clear hose to the caliper bleeder bolt and crack it wide open... do that for a few minutes then repeat to the other one... nooo pumping required.
