Default Wilwood 4 pot bbk help

Hello guys nd gals. I jus installed d 4 pot wilwood bbk on my06. I changed all d lines to stainless steel ones including d rear lines. After I finish everything I bleed d brakes but the brake pedal is still soft. So I bleed it gain (4 brakes). And still the same. It takes 3 to 4 steps on brake pedal for d brakes to grab.. I wonder if there is a special way to bleed d wilwood brakes. ( d wilwood caliper has two bleeder valve nd when I'm bleeing it I jus bleed it using one of the valaves..

Any tips?

Thanks so much guys

Jirro

You have to bleed both bleeders on each caliper. You have air trapped on one side of your calipers.

Good luck with d brakes.

what d hell?

anyway are you bleeding them in the correct order? furthest from the master cylinder first?

did you let extra air in the lines? the calipers usually don't hold that much fluid so it should be pretty straight forward, unless you let the fluid reservoir get too low.

I have the Wilwood 4 pots, you need to bleed both upper bolts on EACH caliper. Good Luck.
