Default help with installing my brakes please

Hello, I will be installing GT500 brembos on my car very soon along with some Earls stainless lines on all four corners. Ive done many installs on many different things, but ive never cracked open a braking system. Ive done some research, and I have seen that I shouldnt let all the fluid drain out of the system because it does something to the abs? My question is how am I supposed to change the lines quickly enough so i dont let all the fluid drain out. Is the system forced? like will it not drain out all the way if the brakes arent depressed? Sorry if they are dumb questions, but i am just unsure of myself with this install. Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't recommend doing so if you have never done brakes on a car/ this gen mustang before. This is not the best one to learn from. The brake reservoir is the same reservoir as your clutch...
It would cost more unfortunately to take it to a shop, but they will have all the correct equipment to do to bleed your brakes.

That's my 2cents, I hope it can help.

ur fine, do one corner at a time and keep the master full. u will not need an ABS bleed afterward. i would recommend installing everything u can on all four, than doing lines individually. you just need two guys to bleed them out, starting at right rear, then in order lr rf lf.

Where are you located? There's bound to be some board people nearby to help out.
