Bleeding brakes after caliper replacement question 200 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be Simon K on  Wed Jul 21 14:39 CST 2004 [RELATED]

I replaced both rear calipers this afternoon, but ran out of daylight before I could bleed them.

My question is this:
Since the front and rear brakes appear to be on different circuits from the MC, is it necessary to bleed the whole system now? Or can I just do the rears? The six rather corroded bleed screws on the fronts look like they are just asking to be broken, so I'd rather leave them alone if I can.

Thanks.

-Simon
