yea they make 1 way hoses for bleeding. there is another way to do it with the pump sprayers (for lawn use) and a spare master cylinder cap that makes it a 1 person also, that is really slick. if you want to do it that way let me know and ill tell you how in the am

Hey fsttyms1,
I would like to find out more about it. If you don't mind, could you please send your write up to my email ? dyclim@hotmail.com
I plan to upgrade the clippers on my Jeep and I need to bleed the brake lines when I have the new clippers installed.

Thanks again.

Cheers !!!
