Default bleeding brakes after replacing wheel cylinder

Hi I have a 94 Dodge Ram Van B350 that I changed the rear right wheel cylinder. When I removed the brake line from the wheel cylinder no fluid leaked out and the front well of the master cylinder was empty.

What order of operation should I take to bleed the brakes?

Thanks'
Matt Baker

You should bleed the master cylinder first. Then work your way around the car, longest (brake line) distance from teh master cyl to the shortest. If you have a leak, fix that first.
