are there manuals out yet for the new generation models i have checked the web the best i could and all the local dealerships. the dodge dealer wants $100 for one. i have one i bought of ebay for $10 in cdrom format but its 2800 pages. i would spend more in ink then i would buying the $100 manual. plus the dodge dealer one is most likely a shop manual not as detailed as a haynes or chilton. thanks john you buy a $25000 truck and you dont want spend $100 more buy the factory manual! there is a reason it is 2800 pages long tons of information that the others left out! greg .

i agree on the clamping...never do that. especially on my new stainless lines. as for bleeding i highly recommend speed bleeders. this is the one thing ive done that made the biggest improvement for bleeding my brakes. http//www.speedbleeder.com/ im sure you can find them many different places locally in your area. im not affiliated with these guys but this thing works. -- laszlo almasi carolina watercraft works inc. dont you hate it when money beats out love open the bleeders and block off the hoses clamp them lightly with the resevoir cap on theres sufficient back-pressure in the hydraulic system not to mention gravity on your side that all the fluid will flow out through the bleeders. no need to clamp anything not that you should ever do that to a brake hose to begin with. and as long as you go slow theres no need to bleed anything becuase youre not introducing any air into the system you should attach a hose to the bleeder and discharge it into a container thats already got some brake fluid in it - again so you dont suck any air back in when you stop applying pressure to the caliper/cylinder. .
