OT, but I know someone up here will know the answer. (ABS bleed question)

[adamnitti]

sorry for the OT, but no one in the jeep forums wants to answer any of my posts... (this is still the most knowledgable bbs community i've been a part of.)

i'm changing the failed abs pump and abs computer in my '97 grand cherokee and have a general question. can i just bleed the brakes manually after swapping out the ABS pump, or am i going to have to deal with getting the dealer to do it so they can 'cycle the pump', etc.... i really don't want to take my car there so i can get overcharged for something so simple. is there anything special i can do to get a decent bleed after opening up the system at the pump end??? thanks for your help-
