Front brake calipers -- bleed screw up, correct? I want to make sure I'm putting them on the proper side.
 
Always happy to be the first to admit to my cluelessness, Ray.

Not cluelessness, its newness; or naivete..

Once you learn then you are safer..
 
Indeed.

Just think: air in liquid... to get rid of it easily the bleeder oughta be at th' top. :wink:
 
That makes sense, Doc. I'm just not used to all this analogue stuff -- I'm a programmer, after all. Give it to me in acronyms and database function calls and it would make more sense.

Can I write a shell script to install the calipers? I wrote one for installing PHP/MySQL/Oracle/Awstats/Apache...

I appreciate the questions too Drew. I should be reassembling my BE this summer so I'm printing out all the Q&A you are presenting to back up what the manual says. Sometimes the book explanations don't quite jibe with real world applications so this is great stuff!
