This weekend I'll be bleeding and replacing the pads in my Juicy 7s.

This will be the first time I'll have done both these jobs together so......should I replace the pads first or bleed them first or does it not matter what order I do them in?

Thanks

Well you'll have the pads out to bleed, and you'll properly recess the pistons as part of that process so:

a) it doesn't matter.

b) But you'll have an easier life bleeding them first, assuming you bleed them properly.

Bleed first to make sure any oil that might escape wont contaminate the new pads.
