You can just gravity fill and bleed th calipers through the reservoir. Don't need a funnel. Just keep the res full take off the cap. Crack the bleeder let It fill and run out until there's no more air. Finished.
@lschwinn166 жыл бұрын
Replaced both calipers, but couldn't bleed brakes totally. I found out that there is a right caliper and a left caliper. I reversed them when installing. Reverse them and viola! You can now successfully bleed them!

Mine didn’t say they were different, how so are they?
@richarddeichler21726 ай бұрын
1. Don't antiseize the bolts that hold the entire caliper on, when you should blue-loctite them. 2. Always bleed the brakes. 3. Notice how I spelled brakes. Might get more hits spelling it right.

I wasn't sure about the antiseize thing. Thanks for that. Also, I changed the spelling. Thanks for that, too!

Fitz's Fixes filling the caliper with brake fluid. Pinching the brake line off. I install the caliper bracket and pads all in one step two 21mm bolts and done.
@trevlouie6 жыл бұрын
you want it done right especially for the braking system. I would take my time also, also explaining it can be done.
@darrylt10316 жыл бұрын
407ForRent.....you still have to fill a new caliper with brake fluid......if you do that prior to install, you eliminate bleeding (though gravity bleeding works well, too)......btw....the bracket didn't need to be replaced.......so your advice ADDS a step.......
