Since you need the clutch to get rolling and don't need the brakes until
later...
Seriously, I don't think it matters whether you do the clutch or the brakes
first. If you don't have experience, the clutch might be a good start since
it is a simpler system. When you do the brakes, I think the conventional
wisdom is to do the wheel cylinder furthest from the M/C first. On a LHD
TR3A that should be the left rear. Then move to the next closest, right
rear. I believe left front is next and right front last, since the four-way
connector is on the RHS.
I must admit I don't understand why the furthest should be first and the
closest last. When we would purge lines in new chemical plant piping
systems [not hydraulic systems], we generally did the opposite. Anyone know
the theory?
