If I remember right, that is the way my SV is plumbed. Splitter from the front fender, runs down the (drivers) right side (left had drive) of the frame to the live axle, into the right wheel, out again to the left with the bleeder. If you are right hand drive, would it be opposite?

Thank you for the reply. The series V sounds like its plumbed the same way as the Tiger I have. As I stated, I sure that is how the Alpine is as well but the Alpine is not at home. Don't quote me on it, but I think the brake lines run the same way for all series Alpines and Tigers.
Regards, Robin.
The Series IV I am finishing up had bleeders on both rear brakes. I replaced all the bleeders with 3/8" speed bleeders which made it a very quick job.
looking for an opinion. I was considering putting in bleeders on both rear wheels. Any pros or cons? Thanks.

Robin,
The car is a complete re-build. everything needs to be fixed or replaced. I have completed the suspension and all of the wheel assemblies, i just haven't attached the brake lines yet. Without the pedals in the tub they would just get in the way. I do recognize what you mean about the convenience of having just one bleeder.
