See http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/kgear.html for a photo of how I had to
do it.  I guess the bleeder could go up, but then you'd need a 90 degree
fitting on the bottom.  I will say that I've already knocked my bleeder off
on the edge of the road while towing (almost trashing the very expensive
caliper) and have come awfully close to doing that again on the "sidewalk"
between my hangar and the runway.  But if had been a 90 brake line fitting
instead, it probably would have done the same thing.  The good thing about
the bleeder is that it's aluminum, so it shears off without trashing the
caliper if you're lucky.
