Bench bleeding, I will attempt that.

I've got a couple days before the master cylinder comes, to take care of another problem -- I can't get the RR rear caliper to bleed at all. No sign of fluid even with the bleeder screw completely removed.

Going to check the archives to see if there's anything about this. If I do replace the caliper, can it be just that one, or is it necessary to go in pairs?

Also, for the life of me I still can't get the (new, thick) pads to slide out. Which is okay in this case I guess, just frustrating.

Thanks for the help,
Tim
