Calipers never left their respective sides. besides the 65 fronts have the hose on one side of the brake plate and the bleeder on the other. I wasn't getting fluid to the rear until I replaced the rear hoses. The fluid does not flow under gravity. How can I preserve my original MC for future use, if needed? I have to find someone to help me bleed the brakes tonight or tommorrow. Hopefully I'll have more info for you then. Thanks as always for the help. -- John 65 square (weezer) 04 jetta It may be ugly but she's all mine! > > Is there any chance that you've installed your calipers on the wrong sides?
