65 front brake ?

I was working on my 65 front brakes and wondering why there is only 1 bleeder on the front caliper's?

Tom -

Because the bleeder screw on the front caliper is above the level of the crossover passage between the caliper halves due to the orientation of the caliper on the bracket; at the rear, the crossover passage between the calipers is above the bleeder location, so both halves need their own bleeder.

Thanks John, I knew there had to be a reason but didn't know what! Tom
