CRAP

i just got done bleeding my brakes and i did it a bit different. i did each wheel in order but i did the nipples backwards. think it matters

example

rear pass should be outside then inside. i did inside outside
front driver should be outside inside i did inside outside.

and so on....... it feals great so im guessing im good to go but i figured id still ask

If it's working you're fine. However, there may be some air in the system (probably not much, if any). If you're happy with how it feels and the brakes work good, don't worry about it for now. Just do it in that order next time around.

Your post-whoring is really annoying, especially when the previous post gave correct information and you are giving incorrect information. I know that you want to sell something, but stop it right now. Thanks.
