Hi guys! I have a quick question. While I was working on my air shocks(which I did get working-thanks to everyone's help!) the rear passenger side brake line broke(rusted out)and I ended up replacing it. I did lose fluid in the master cylinder but it did not completely empty out-it probably went a little under half full. I noticed that the line is separate from the other brakes. Do I just need to bleed that brake, both rear brakes, or all four? As of now I just bled that particular caliper and the brake does feel pretty firm. Thank you for any advise you can give me.
 
Hi!
You need only bleed the back line
Start with the rear right (number 1 in the picture)
Then rear left (number 2 in the picture)

Your brake fluid can never be too clean. I the fluid is old and dark gravity bleed all four corners.

Check the rest of the metal brake lines while your at it. if any look questionable from excessive rust replace them as well.

Hi!
I fully agree with EaOutlaw. It is better to replace the liquid completely
In this case, according to the numbers - 1,2,3,4.
Good luck!

Yeah I was thinking the same thing. When I bled the first one alot of rust particles came out. I went ahead and bled them all. The other lines look pretty good. Thanxs alot guys for the advise.
