When I blead the rear brakes, they jus dribble out. The front squirt out fast and hard. I started on the RR then to the RL, then the FR and finally FL. I did the process several times just to make sure there was no air in the line and there is plenty of fluid in the resivor. The rear still dribbles on voth sides when I bleed them. Any ideas? Thanks.

Totally remove the bleeder screws and see if they are clear to blow through. They usually ger crud buildup in the bottom of them, restricting flow. This is all assuming you have a good pedal to start with and are actually building pressure in the line.
