Having read many posts with brake bleeding problems I wonder if anyone has tried a minor mod?
I have an 1982 SWB with twin leading shoe on the front axle. Lots of posts suggest that bleeding this set up is difficult, so when I replace all the brake pipes I was thinking of routing the short pipe from the flexi to the BOTTOM wheel cylinder, then running a new pipe from the bottom cyclinder to the top one and also moving the bleed screw to the top cylinder.
In theory the air should be easier to get rid of with this arrangement.
Anyone tried it? Pros/cons?
Thanks
