(85 300TD wagon) - Has anyone bled brakes without removing wheels? - Or is this a common method to do this? (just wondering)

Thanks Steve

Seems like I did that once and it was very uncomfortable.

I bled my brakes not too long ago and I did not take off the wheels. I just drove the car on ramps and went under the beast.

I can comfortably bleed my brakes with the wheels on the ground. Just pull the wheel to one side or the other to make accessing the bleed screw easier.
