Brakes won't bleed

[CORNY4]

Hey guys,
Wondering if you can help me. Trying to bleed my brakes. The front bleed up fine. But im not getting any fluid to the rear? It's a VN Executive V8.
Thanks Mike

Does the nipples crack open? How are you bleeding them?

 

[CORNY4]

Yeah mate nipple cracks open. Front were bleeding fine. But no fluid was making it to the rear calipers.

remove the nipple completely and make sure it's hollow and not blocked with dirt/dust etc

Should have bled the back first too.

Yeah you should always bleed brakes starting at the furthest wheel from the brake booster/reservoir but like mentioned above, remove the nipple completely and see if the fluid pumps out then... If so, the nipple is blocked....

Make sure too that the rubber hose that goes to the brakes isnt blocked. I had a chev that had this prob. And it ended up being blocked bleeders and blocked rubber hoses. Some times those hoses get bent or kinked

Forgot to mention. On the rear brakes you have 3 rubber pipes two that go too the calipers 1 each side,and 1 before the diff

Yeah all those hoses are brand new And the calipers re-built. Tried to bleed the back first. But wasn't getting fluid. So moved to the front just to see if fluid was going there. So went up to the master cylinder to try bleed that. The two front ports were fine. But nothing on the rear.
