bleeding the rear calipers
Hi, I've still got my '82 xjs and the small elbow coming off the brake resvr was loose and sucked in air and now I think they'll need to be bled. Does the cradle need to come down to do the rears, or can I reach the bleeder screws with it up? I was told by a local caliper rebuilder that they should be 10mm. Is this also correct?. Thanks

Ooops! Might need to point out,
On my 87, the FRONT brakes are metric. Not sure about your 82. I have a feeling this thread will get to "speed bleeders" at some point. Pn the crows foot wrench, if its a little long, cut off the other side so you get about a 4 inch wrench. Now you have a "custom Jaguar tool"! Not going to be your last! ;-)
