Front Calipers - 260Z

[aerodyn]

I've been having problems getting my front calipers bled, and I just read a post that indicates I may have the calipers upside down. In my case the bleed screws are on the bottom. Should they be on top? I think this would imply they are handed. Don't recall if I bought them handed. Any help would be appreciated.

Bleed screws should be on the top. They can be installed the wrong way.

thanks, I guess it pays to look at the manual, especially when they are not idiot-proof. This site is great, I've been messing with these damn brakes for two weekends. Just finished installing some little heater hoses waaay up under the dash. Can't wait to swap the calipers and see if that fixes it.

Heater hoses...I'm getting ready to play that game myself. Good luck with the brakes!

getting the right side works like it's supposed to. On the heater hoses, I found I had to remove the glove box and heater fan to get at them. Once I got all that stuff removed, it was relatively simple.
