RajB is on a distinguished road
Glad the info is helpful.

Yes it is a pressure system Jason is using and if using this sort of system then it is a one man job.

The reason, the fronts are fine is that the valves close to the rear when the fluid has drained out of the system so allowing the fronts to remain intact. Jason said you have to use the software (autologic etc) to open the valves back up to allow the fluid to fully pass through and allow the proper bleed of the system and fill the pipes back up and remove the air.

Just using the pressure system on it's own will not allow the system to still be bled.

We were at it for a couple of hours with loads of air coming out but still never got anywhere until Jason hooked up the Autologic to cycle the valves open.
