Betreff: IML: Brake questions

Hi all,

I have a few brake questions.  These are not related to my Imperial, 
but a much more current Chrysler Product, however hopefully these are 
generic enough questions that no one will mind.

It looks like I need to replace the front calipers on my car.  When I 
remove the calipers, am I supposed to block off the brake lines to 
keep the brake fluid from draining out?  How do I do this?  I am a 
mechanical neophyte, and have never done something like this.

I will only be touching the front brakes, will I need to bleed the 
rear brakes, or can I just bleed the front brakes?

Thanks for your response and any advice on  doing this for a neophyte.
