Bleed the pass rear first then the drivers side. The rotors may be trash now too due to the caliper or heat so check them now - do it right once and save yourself the headaches. Been there a few times.
I haven't seen the loaded calipers. Autozone sells the passenger caliper for about $37 and the drivers for $62 + core. I like your price better.
