Default Re: Filling a brakes system

I know this doesn't answer the OP's question, but recently a 30 year old friend helped me install a rear axle assembly in my F350 because he has a lift. Well when it came time to bleed the rear brakes he grabs this thing that looked like an anti theft 'club' that fit between the steering wheel and brake pedal. Next he hooks an air hose to a fitting on it and a jumper to the battery. After that he pulls out a little wireless key fob switch which activates an air switch solenoid. It was sort of like a wife that never gets tired of stepping on and off the pedal. All done in about a minute.
