Hello Everyone,

Has anyone successfully tried the Grand Caravan brake bleeding technique described on www.autozone.com (http://www.autozone.com/)? Its URL is listed below.

Do you actually need a Chrysler DRB to select the ‘bleed ABS hydraulic unit mode’? How much does a DRB cost and where do you get it from??

Thanks for your help.

Best Regards,
Stan

As long as you don not distrub the ABS controller you can bleed in the normal manner. I have a Caravan with ABS and have bled the brakes many times. I finally added the Russel speed bleeders to make the job easier, but normal bleed procedures work just fine (even on my BMW 750).

Hello Bear,
Thanks for your help. I put in the new: rear wheal cylinders, pads and master cylinder, and started the bleeding process.
