brake bleeding procedure

what's the order to bleed the brakes on my '03 4Runner? Right rear, left rear, right front, left front? I can't get the right rear bled properly. When I crack open the bleed screw no fluid comes out when the pedal is depressed.

I'm kinda particular about the brake pedal feel as I autocross and road race (not the 4Runner) so while I was rotating the tires this past weekend I decided to bleed the brakes.

From what I understand, you want to start bleeding the brakes at the wheel furthest from the brake master cylinder to closest. Someone with a FSM may be able to tell you the exact order though.
 
1st remove brake fluid from master cylinder using a turkey baster. Clean reservoir using lint free clean rag. Refill master cylinder bleed left rear, right rear, right front and lastly front left.

Hope this helps
