can a home mechanic without a computer do a proper brake job without the abs computer bleed or would thatF things up?

 

When you compress the cylinders,do it by opening the bleeders and you will be fine.

 

uh oh! The wheel cylinders on the driver side drum had to go in to get the new shoes on because the old shoes were down to the bone. I had to opena rustyhose mount that was pinching the line.So did that back up to much fluid into the system and ruin everything?

here is some info on my problem.

Probable not but if air got in you might have to do some bleeding,how do the brakes feel?

 

i've been told it takes more pedal depression than before which doesn't make sense to me because now the cyclinders are further in on the one side. and there are vibrations

 

If you have to press the pedal further now,there might be air in the system.
Are the vibrations new,is it when applying the brakes.

 

yes its only when applying the brakes

 

You should go back and recheck assemble on all four corners.
Vibration in the steering wheel could be front,in the seat could be back.

 

well I just bled the brakes like it said to in the service manual.which happened to be misprinted and told of two different wheel sequences but that shouldn't be a huge deal. I also broke a bleeder at the front so I just used the line attach bolt.

So now the pedal travel is even worse wtf?????????????? [:'(][:@][:@][:@]. It goes almost to the floor before the brakes grab.

I noticed the fluid in the line that was pinched was nasty dirty.

 

Start at the right rear brake,then left rear,then right front,then left front,keep the master full.If you can use a hand vacuum bleeder,much easier.
