I have never once had to use a scan tool, pull a fuse, stand on my head or call a Jamaican voodoo priest to get brakes bled on a 90's Chev truck.
It can be a pain in the ass, but with 2 people, rather easy.
One needs to pump the pedal with the key on, and hold. Key on so you can see the red brake indicator.
If the indicator is on, pump again, may even have to kick the pedal quickly to get it to go off.
When the light is on, the prop valve is closing off fluid to the rear.
Hold pedal.
Guy #2 opens right rear bleeder while #1 keeps pressure on pedal.
Close bleeder. Repeat process until no air.
Then go to left rear.
then right front.
then left front.

Or, just take the *f-wording thing to someone who can fix it and be done.

parts won’t interchange ? Same body style
I know they are different but its just steel lines. Matching the system up for my ten inch brakes to 11.2 can be "touchy" we will call it. The cylinders volume has a lot to do with pedal travel on both the master and the rear wheel cylinders. I fixed a lot of these miss match brake combos and tend to know what does what. Most guys set it all up and then miss the ball on pedal travel so they put on a bigger master cylinder bore and lose brake pressure at the wheels. Most of them will live with excessive brake pedal travel, touchy pedal when it grabs because of a small bore master and large wheel cylinders, I won't. You have to change the pedal ratio buy moving the pivot points or sometimes just the main pin if it has one. It's right or not. You can mix stuff carefully. Lines are easy to make. Having an adjustable bias is priceless. 60/40 is good for dry road empty but these brakes were never anywhere near that. 70/30 maybe on a good day... they suck when run it. Good for about a week o_O

My 10 year old is pretty good at pumping the brakes.

I never do it with the key on and they turn out pretty good.
