Default Bench Bleed new Slave?

I have my master out and have a brand new slave (GM). Should I just hook the master up to slave and bleed it on my bench while they are out? I have to bleed my master anyway.

So can I bench bleed the two of the while hooked up to each other, then disconnect, then hook back together when in the car? Sorry, I am new to this and don't wanna take the tranny out again.

i would be careful. if you over extend the slave you could blow the piston seals.

i would just bleed the master, then install them all and bleed the whole system the way you are supposed to.

it really only takes about 5min to do.

i suggest bleeding it before you put the trans crossmember on...that way the rear of the trans is lower and the bleed valve is easier to access
