Caliper bleed order
I have to rebuild by rear brakes and need to know the order to bleed each rear calliper. There are 3 bleed screws on each rear caliper. I read the sticky but could not determine the correct order and my manual does not address either. Thanks in advance

It really makes no difference. Just the upper ones though. The lower is a stopper.

GM service manual says:
Left rear inner
Left rear outer
Right rear inner
Right rear outer
Right front
Left front.
I have bled the system beginning with the right rear inner half and not had any problems.

....however you can do it the reverse way and it seems to work too.....the lower bleeders on the rear are plugs and do not bleed the system as stated earlier by wombvette.....
