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?

I love this tool. https://www.harborfreight.com/pneuma...kit-61912.html

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