Now in Scott,LA
You could always tap the cylinders with a rubber mallet then tap on the har lines with your hand to shake any remaining air loose. :dunno:

Ok, I have some errands to run before I can dig into this some more. At least I'm not the only one confused now.

Sooooo..... I just looked more closely at the front wheel cylinders. There are two on each front. One at the top and one at the bottom. The bleeder screw is on the bottom. So, I have some more parts coming in tomorrow evening. I'm going to disconnect the line between the top/bottom and bleed from the top, reconnect and then bleed from the bottom. I will prime/roll all six before bleeding the system again.

Still waiting on the weather to cooperate. I'm supposed to be working on that today, but I have been busy with other things.

Ok, small update. We removed the rear hubs and had the new oil seals and new races pressed in. During all this we have managed to spring an axle seal leak. Removed the cylinders and filled/rolled them around. So now all of that is cleaned up nice. And we had to install the new shoes on the back due to the leak. I had to relieve Mom of kid duty, so I'll bleed out the system tomorrow.
