[QUOTE="FlatlandFSJ, post: 751973, member: 8507"] How are the flex lines routed at the caliper/links? I had a similar issue while bleeding rays brakes the first time. The lines looped up and back down to the calipers, pumping the pedal and bleeding them resulted in a nice solid flow out the bleeder, but the pedal never would stiffen up afterwards. We started bleeding each fitting in the lines by loosening one at a time and stomping the pedal to the floor and tightening the fitting before letting up on the pedal. I'm not sure if it was the real cause of the issue, but when I got to the caliper lines and repeated the process at the fitting on the caliper there was a good bit of air stuck in the lines where it looped up and back down to the calipers. I guess just pumping and cracking the bleeder wasn't allowing enough to push the air out the top of the flex lines. [/QUOTE]
