Dom I dont suggest the Speed Bleeders as they have a tendency to leak. I suggest bleeding the outside first then the inboard. I suggest you bleed all the old fluid out. Suggest using a turkey baster to get the old fluid out of the reservior first. GC

I don't mean to change the thread , ( I wont but I was having a goofy idea today & I always ask the stupid questions, But has anyone thought about a dual caliper set-up? I'm sure the rear would be easier since it doesn't turn , ( I know the front does most of the stopping) . But I was thinking about the gentlemen here that do cnc work etc . I should be easy to make a bracket that would mount up .. This way po boi's like me wouldn't have to change rim -tires,calipers etc . Just an Idea- I know- I we todd did .
