Bleeding Question

I just changed the front calipers on my '92 Ford Ranger, and need to bleed my brakes since the pedal now goes all the way to the floor. Since the front and rear are on separate systems, do I only need to bleed the front brakes? I don't think I let the master cylinder go dry when I changed the calipers. Thanks in advance for any help.

You may end up needing to do both front and rear if I remember right. Just to insure air hasn't gotten into the rear brake lines.

start with the wheel farthest from the master cylinder and work your way towards it. so the order should be RR, LR, RF, LF

front and rear brakes are seperate systems. if you have not taped into the rears, you will not be required to bleed the rear unless the master has been run out of fluid. In that case. you need to bench bleed the master cylinder and then bleed the whole system using the referance above in sequence.
