Default Bleeding brakes, 99 Dakota

Just replaced the front hoses and have to bleed the brakes. Anything different than normal that I should be aware of on this truck?
Thanks

They aren't hard to bleed. I'd do all 4 wheels as well. It can't hurt to get some fresh fluid into the rear cylinders.

Dodge recommends bleeding in the following order:
Right Rear, Left Rear, Right Front, then Left Front.
