Default How much brake fluid does a 1500 hold?

I am getting ready to do my spring shape up and brakes are number one on the list. I am ordering pads, stainless steel lines and new fluid. Does anyone know how much fluid our systems hold? I want to get some of that z-rated baer fluid and it comes in pints.

It's only been 3 hours since your original post. Give it some time.

I'd say a full flush is around 2-3 bottles. If you are just doing a bleed, you'll get by with under 2 bottles.

From the looks of it I'd say get 2 quarts worth to be safe for a full flush.
