Hi Clint,

You said "easiest" so I thought I'd chime in with the suggestion to spend the $40 and get a pressure bleeder. Other folks on this list turned me on to this method and, man, is it easy - fill it up with new fluid, hook it up to your reservoir behind the dash, pump it to something like 10-12 psi, open up your slave bleeder valve with a length of tubing on it leading to a jug/jar...drink a beer...you're done. Be sure to do that last step, otherwise it won't work ;)

(Motive model 0100 is the one I have and it works great)

I also read that these pressure systems are easier than the vacuum systems on internal seals in the MC and Slave...but I cannot confirm that.
