In the movie, although there wasn't much technical explanation, it appeared that they removed and replaced the entire suspension upright assembly with new stub axles, hubs, rotors and calipers in place. I was thinking they must have used some kind of quick
connect on the brake lines with a quick bleeder in place.</div>

<div dir="ltr">as long as you are removing the brake pads and not the calipers, no need bleed anything. Honestly with some practice on the BJ8, with a full pit crew, you could probably remove and replace the rotors and pads in 5 min or less if assemblies were
ready.

<div>I wondered that myself. Maybe some sort of check valve on the brake lines and pre-filled calipers, allowing bleeding with just a couple quick pumps on the brake pedal?<br>
<br>
Of course, it was a movie, so maybe it was the figment of some screenpaly writer's imagination?<br>
