Rise Dead Thread RISE!!!

I've pulled a couple diffs from the wreckers but I've always had a problem with the brake lines. I usally just beat them around enough to get the axel outta the diff.

I've never dealt with brake lines before and now it's time to install some diff into my truck.
Do you have to bleed the brakes after you pull the lines off? I've never done that before. I'm hoping for an easy way around that. I've heard you can just wrap the ends with a plastic bag to keep it from collecting too much air.
Does this work?

 

Bleed them. It takes 10 minutes and brakes are important. New brake fluid is always good.

The bag trick kinda works, but I always find it leaks and unless you are really quick, you'll end up dripping fluid everywhere and possibly running your master dry. If your master runs out, you should really remove it and bench bleed it. Shaved golf tee's in the brake lines work better. But bleed anyways.
