Just curious, why when the rear circuit shares the same line until it splits at the diff, do you leave the right rear to last?

Bleed the longest line first.
As for vacuum bleeders...you have to seal up the nipples with a heavy grease or something similar so when you crack them air doesn't get in past the threads. I bought a vacuum unit and did the clutch circuit. I thought it did a good job but after unbolting the master cylinder I couldn't push it back into position...I was trying to operate the clutch slave. This turned out to be an adjustment problem BUT there must have been air in the master cylinder. I've always done a final bleed with the traditional two man method. Especially on the brake system.
