do the flex lines first, you won't have the sore back from trying to get 
at the master yet...

      <div>This week I am going to replace the brake master cylinder,
        fluid reservoir and flexible brake pipes on my BT7. What is the
        best order to do these three steps?<br>
        <br>
        Reservoir, flexible brake pipes, master cylinder is the route I
        was going to take. <br>
        <br>
        Will I need to bench bleed the MC?<br>
        Do I need to make any adjustments to the brakes before the
        bleeding step?<br>
        Should I drain all the fluid out of the system before replacing
        the reservoir?<br>
        Any advice welcome.<br>
