Wouldn't have bled them if they weren't installed, buddy... Rolled the caliper up to the strut, bungeed it to the spring with a 2x2 square tube in between the pistons, and bled the suckers. Worked alright - definitely more of a PITA than the stock calipers, but I think the payoff is there... :wink:
