You are in the wrong section. However you are in luck because I happen to drive a 2000 Grand Cherokee Laredo! You probably have air in the ABS unit. Most of the time it takes a pressure bleeder to get all the air out of that system if that's the case. This involves a tank of brake fluid and a hose that clamps over the reservoir cap, then is pumped up with a hand pump to feed the fluid. Once charged, it's bled in the normal fashion.

That left front caliper isn't mounted with the bleeder on the bottom is it?

Good catch, Cruiser! Use a right caliper on the left side and the bleeder screw won't bleed properly.
