When you are bleeding your brakes do you just jack up and take one tire out at a time? Since i want to go through the 4 wheels 3 or 4 times this might take forever.


What method do you use when bleeding yoru brakes?
Do you just Reach in without jacking up and removing the tires?

 

Put the car up on 4 jackstands, take all the wheels off. Any other way is really dumb and will take forever. You can be done in under 10 minutes with all four corners off.

 

I just leave all four corners on, reach behind and hook a hose up to the bleeder to drain it, no mess, no fuss. I also pressurize the master cyl to 10-15psi so I don't need to have my wife pump the pedal.
Works good, as I just did the fastbrake 11" and it stops like NOW.

 

what are you using to pressureize the brake system ?? i know probally a compressor but what are you hooking up to the master cylnder to make it work ?????

i may have to retire my one man brake bleeder (vaccum pump)

how the hell do you see anything doing it that way? i always look at the fluid coming out to make sure there are no bubbles, but i don't see how this is possible doing it your way...
