when i replaced my pads one of my calipers stuck so i had to remove the brake line to compress it.

bleeding the brakes takes two people. one inside the cab and one outside. there is a litt nut or hex bolt on the caliper that needs to be loosened. basically put your wrench on it, have the person apply the brakes, and you crack the nut. the pedal will go to the floor, DONT RELEASE THE BRAKE PEDAL. close the nut. repeat. do this until all the air is gone and it squirts out fluid.

we use DOT-3 fluid
