shawn941 Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 so im swapping out my rear brake caliper (never done it b4) the old one wont release the pads all the way and they are lagging on my rotor.the caliper is pretty beat up so i picked one up for $60. i plan on not draining all the brake fluid and first unbolting and removing old caliper then removing brake line and putting line on new caliper and bolting back on.is there anything special i need to do to bleed fluid into the new caliper once bolted back on?

#1JUANstunna Posted June 24, 2009 Report Posted June 24, 2009 Just hold the caliper above the reseivor when you take off the line and hold it up there and put on the new caliper. That when you don't lose much fluid and any air that is in it will go to the top and out. A few pumps and it will bleed out. Quote
