OK, got basically everything lined up and ready to go, but before i start on this thing does anyone have any suggestions or tips on stuff to look out for and proper procedure on stuff?
what i need to know for sure is the procedure for bleeding these things bc they have 2 bleeder valves. THis is the first time in about 25 years that these things are getting replaced. I will be doing the front wheel bearings as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated. THanks, Billy |

ok.
Im putting in a new set of discs and wheel bearings along with pads. I am familiar with a normal way of bleeding brakes on a car that only has 1 bleeder per caliper. Not exactly sure what to do with 2. What is a pro valve? |

QUOTE(RS22b @ Oct 6 2006, 05:55 PM)  What is a pro valve? Proportoning valve. Located on the back firewall. I wouldn't bleed this until you have all the brakes bled. Then if you still have a spungy feeling or wierd things happen crack and bleed the valve. |
