Calipers
 

Blew the drivers front hose on the truck today and when I went to change it found someone has put a 71-72 disc setup on it. It seems the line was rubbing on the upper balljoint nut. My question is, I always though the bleeder screws faced down but these seems to be facing up. You can only mount the hose end to the caliper a certain way so trying to clock it is out of the question. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Since the function of the bleeders is to remove air from the system, they have to be at the highest point in the calipers or cylinders. Otherwise you bleed off fluid and leave air in the system.

Yeah I didn't think about that aspect of the bleeders location. Thanks!
