Front brake lines bleeding?
I replaced before a few years rear brake lines and one that go from below driver sit to rear splitter. Had accident past week and mechanic replaced lines that go from master cylinder to both front wheel. So only old lines are that go from rear opening of master cylinder to abs bloc and from there to below my sit. I would like replace them and all my lines will be new. My question is how to bleed then. I'm not willing to open rear bleed valves for it. I see two solutions. One is use vacuum gun and plug master cylinder and drain air from top. It is similar to video that will attach, only that one is for power steering. Idea is make so much vacuum, 20 mmHg that fluid do not move but air do and go to top. It is how is power steering pump bleed. Second attach lines to master cylinder and wait till brake fluid start drip at exit below my sit and than connect line there with line that I installed before. What are opinions?
