I was flushing the brakes on my car yesterday (first time ever doing this) and notice that the front willwood calipers use a 1/4" bleed valve on top of the 3/8" valve body. The rear calipers (jaguar?) use no bleed valve and you loosen the body to flush the brakes. Should I change them to the more conventional system like on the Willwood's, or is this the standard valve? I have to change the passenger side anyway because it it nearly stripped out.

The rear does have a bleeder valve on top of the caliper, use a 3/8" wrench.
