Front passenger caliper stuck so it trashed the rotor. I work at Autozone so parts are not an issue so I got the works for the front end: Rotors pads and calipers. I thought it would be quick to get a one man pump, The thing SUCKS! Got some help and bled the brakes is like 3min VS like 10min on one side with the hand pump. No bubbles in the front end through the tube when I bled the lines but I still have a soft pedal. It's not my first rodeo when it comes to brakes but this jeep is weird. So I guess my main question is, could all the fluid bled out of the rear lines? I don't think it would, it's just against the law of gravity. Thanks for the advice in advance.

 

Had the same issue about a year ago ended up rebuilding the calipers. A couple of bad seals. Had hoped for some air bubbles trapped in the line but no such luck. Replaced the seals and pistons problem solved.

 

You need to start bleeding at the right rear then left rear then pass front then driver front should take care of the spongy petal if not may be a bad caliper outta the box.

 

Is the bleeder screw on top, or the bottom? It should be on top.

 

1.)Bleed all your brakes to get air out, keep doing it until just a stream of brake fluid comes out.

2.)IF you have ABS system in your jeep (like my buddies did) if you get air into the pump its hard as hell to get the air out of the pump and that air can cause soft brake pedal.If you don't have ABS go with part one.

 

Everything was good to go, I rushed to put them on not realizing the bleeder was on the bottum.. stupid mistake...

 

You wont be the last...
