Start as far away from the master cylinder/servo as possible, then work towards it

So for a right hand drive SJ:

Passenger side rear
Driver side rear
Passenger side front
Driver side front

That's handy.. That's what I've got to do tomorrow. Never had to bleed all four at the same time before.

You will need a mate to help!!!
... I really strongly recommend the gunson brake bleeders that work off your spare tyre. Makes bleeding your brakes a 5 minute, 1 person job!

I have a little pot, and you fill it half full of fluid, pump the pedal a few times, job done, and a 1 man job.
