Hey All!!!

It has been a while since I have been on the forums. I wanted to check in with everyone and see how they were doing. If I was a betting man you all withered the storm of diesel prices like I did and kept the ol beasts!!! I was wondering if anyone remembers the sequence for brake bleeding. I think if memory serves furthest point first then the closest caliper. Hope everyone is well!!

Hey Suber. Welcome back. What have you been doing?

I weathered the prices by driving my Mustang around 95% of the time. Sux but 200+ mi/week to commute was expensive even at 25mpg.

You're right about the brake bleed sequence. Farthest first - RR, LR, RF, then LF.

I'm up for that! Are you in town the weekend after New Years? My 15 yr old son will be here but Jan 2nd or 3rd would work if you can make one of those days. We're going to the Gila and Tucson from 12/26 till the 31st.
