Help with brake bleeding order

Hi CL,

I am trying to bleed the brakes on my 01 ls430. Does anybody know the proper order to bleed the brakes? Sorry if this question has been asked or covered before. I tried searching with no luck. Thanks in advanced!

My 05 LS430 DVD manual states bleed the wheel farthest from the master cylinder first, so Passenger Rear is your first wheel, then it just says do all other wheels... go figure. I need to do this myself in 1k miles so would be interested in what is the best order beyond the first wheel...
