Ok I was trying to put the pads in to the "bracket" and then mount it into the caliper I will try mounting the bracket first, then pads into it, then sliders

That was surprisingly easy doing it that way, I found a vice I could use to push the piston back it made my nice clean "apple juice" of new fluid from when I did the rears all murkey so I drained it and replaced it again before I do the front stainless lines.

 

Any suggestions on how long to gravity bleed them for if I am just letting it pee on the caliper?

Go to HomeDeLoweNards and get some clear plastic (vinyl?  Tygon?  Whatever) tubing that barely fits onto the bleed screw.  Loop it up over the suspension, then down into a clear bottle.  When the fluid coming out is clean, that corner is done.  Might take 15 minutes per corner, and you'll have to top off the MC A bunch of times.

hmm not near that much seemed to come out when I did the rears it was definitely coming out but I never had to top it off really the fluid was bright yellow applejuice like what I put in however. We also have snowy icy roads right now so I have to make due with what I have in the garage if I want to finish this
