Replacing Rear Caliper on 03 2500HD

Getting ready to replace rear caliper on my truck(old one sticking on), anything i should know about bleeding the brakes?
I thought I heard there was something different with the ABS.

Thanks

when removing the old caliper do not push the brake fluid of the caliper into the system...whenever replacing pads this also applies..
the fluid in the caliper is defective....

I open the bleeder and with a C clamp push back piston..

make sure when/before bleeding that the brake res, is full..it you allow the abs to get air in it it will require a special piece or equiptment to cycle the abs for proper bleeding.

before installing new cal make sure the pistons move fairly easy...make sure the brake pads/pins are not binding..
