Thank you for this one person brake bleeding system demo. Your detailed explanation on the proper bleeding sequence was a tremendous help for me as well. I was having the same caliper sticking problem on my 1993 YJ project car. You saved me a lot of extra work and worry! Carry On Sir!

Just bought a Jeep and live in remote Alaska where mechanics are few and far between. And when you can find a mechanic appointments are weeks out and ask for your firstborn as payment lol. Thanks for the awesome, informative, and helpful video. Much appreciated!

[@edruth1038]

That was great ! Because I never ever have anybody around to help me bleed the brakes ! Th for all the great tips ....

[@andreleroux3477]

In Birmingham Alabama, the mechanic rate on average is about $150 an hour and I have seen it over $180 an hour in a specialty shop like a 4x4 shop.

[@Poweraddicts]

So true!! A lot of people do not realize that or even understand why the rates are so high.

[@shawnjoe9187]

Another great video. Thank you!

Been doing bleeding for 50+ years. Only way to safely do it is either push it thru from top of master with a pump and attachment that fits flush. Little expensive. Or use a small diagnosis vacuum pump. I made my own jar with a qt heavy Mason drilling the lid for the high hose and the bleed hose down in fluid. What this does is it keeps you from destroying the master by pushing the cup seals into the area that has pits and crud that has built up. If it is a brand new master, then your method is cool. When you use vacuum, go slow. Those v cup seals in master and cylinder on drum breaks exert tremendous pressure one way. The other, it is easy to suck air back under them.

[@rudyfinney9450]

Could you push the caliper Piston in and out a couple times to possibly free it up and break up possible rust inside along with fluid replacement and not have to replace caliper? I Know calipers aren't all that expensive and it's probably better to just replace them, but out of curiosity was hoping to get your opinion.

[@Poweraddicts]

I suppose its possible, but it would be a gamble as to when it starts giving you trouble again. With the possibility of being stranded its not worth the risk. Have a great day!

[@rudyfinney9450]

@@Poweraddicts agreed, thank you! You have a great day as well and stay safe.

[@kingsoulsurfer41]

On a TJ the reservoir is a lot smaller how would you do that with one person

[@Poweraddicts]

Same as a YJ. Just check it more often to make sure you don't run it dry.

[@kingsoulsurfer41]

Does it matter if you use dot3 or dot4 brake fluid when you flush the master cylinder

[@notsure8918]

What size hose did you use?

[@Poweraddicts]

Its 3/16 ID , 5/16 OD. You can see the tubing tag just after the opening intro. Have a great day!!

[@notsure8918]

Oh man how did I miss that!? I rewatched it and see the tag now. Thanks! Awesome video by the way. I am rebuilding my 95yj solo and this is gonna help me a ton!

[@BDogg2023]

I followed your video…thanks! However, my pedal still goes to the floor and I have no brake pressure. Any guess where I should start trouble shooting?

[@Poweraddicts]

You either have a bad master cylinder or you still have air in the system.

[@BDogg2023]

@@Poweraddicts Thanks. Turns out I had the calipers on upside down. Didn’t realize the pairs of pads weren’t both the same.

[@darylreederjr5393]

Hey buddy... How long did you cut your hose for your bleeder bottle???

[@Poweraddicts]

Hey man!! Overall length is around 2 feet or so. The length is mainly determined by making sure you have enough tubing to be higher than the bleeder screw and a place to put the bottle. Good to see ya again!! Have a great day!!

[@kingsoulsurfer41]

What if it's too badly rusted and you can't do the bleeder valve what do you do

[@kingsoulsurfer41]

@mk319mod0 what if he can replace the caliper?

[@Poweraddicts]

Best thing to do is to just replace the caliper or wheel cylinder.
