Wilwood caliper angle.

Featured Replies

Is the angle of these calipers alright ? I see posts that the bleeders should point straight up. I can take them off to bleed them, so I can get trapped air out. Should they be pointing straight up just for bleeding purposes ? Thank you very much.

That's just fine. No need to remove for bleeding. With multi-piston calipers, lightly tap the caliper with a Plastic tipped hammer while bleeding. This releases any air bubbles that may be hiding in little nooks and crannies of internal passages. 

@Diseazd  just did that zwap on a '73 he has.  He can tell you what Chickenman said, I like to get as much info as I can though.

Here's that thread of Diseazed's
