911SC front brake caliper question.

Hi Guys.

I suspect I may have put my front wheel brake calipers on the wrong way up. In other words, I may have put the left hand one on the right side.

Can you remember on your car; is the bleed nipple on the top or on the bottom?

Thanks, Bill.

The bleeders need to face up.

Oh right, thanks (extreme embarrassment). That explains why why it was really hard to bleed the brakes. The air wanted to go upwards, not downwards - I appreciate the help
