Fixing my breaks. Couple questions.

[zgensler31]

So just got a new caliper from death cougar today and I'm gonna swap it over. I'm getting new pads and in planning on bleeding the breaks.

First. Do I need to bleed all the way around? Or just the front? Just the one being replaced(left)?

Second. only ever bled breaks once before and it was on a minivan. So any tips for the t4r?
Third. any thing to look out for when doing this?

I must be dyslexic because I read rotor instead of caliper. Anyway, disconnect the line from the caliper and cap it to slow the flow. Pull the old caliper off and put the new one on. Install the pads On the new caliper before bolting it back to the strut. If you pop the clip holding the flex line it will help when installing the hard line to the caliper.

You only need to bleed the line you opened. If you still need to bleed the brakes, might as well do all four. Start at the back, either side then move to the passenger front and then drivers front.

Here is a video on bleeding brakes
