RE: IML: Brake questions



I agree with Dietmar, brakes are not something an inexperienced person
should tackle.  They are the single most important thing on your car that
need to work flawlessly.  If they don't, people can get hurt or die.  Trust
your brake work to a licensed mechanic who does it for a living.

Subject: IML: Brake questions

Hi all,

I have a few brake questions.  These are not related to my Imperial, 
but a much more current Chrysler Product, however hopefully these are 
generic enough questions that no one will mind.

It looks like I need to replace the front calipers on my car.  When I 
remove the calipers, am I supposed to block off the brake lines to 
keep the brake fluid from draining out?  How do I do this?  I am a 
mechanical neophyte, and have never done something like this.

I will only be touching the front brakes, will I need to bleed the 
rear brakes, or can I just bleed the front brakes?

Thanks for your response and any advice on  doing this for a neophyte.
