This week i bought some brake fluid while it was on special.

Now i have the needed fluid for the job i proceeded to do a brake fliud flush to remove the old and replace with new. As brake fliud is hydroscopic it will absorb moisture and become less effective over time and this moisture build up can also allow rust internally in the brake system aswell. This fliud should be replaced at least every 2 years.

Better clean this hub area first.

That is better still more cleaning to do another time.

I took this bleed nipple right out so i could clean it internally aswell.

The fluid container that i had to keep topping up as the fliud ran out the opened bleed nipples doing one wheel at a time.

That is that job done for a couple of years :)

Hope everyone is having a great day/night.
