Default Bleed points on 2005 Tundra LTD Double Cab

Hi Folks, can anyone tell me the bleed points on a 2005 Tundra Double Cab 4.7L. I am trying to bleed the brakes and want to make sure i bleed all points. I heard there are 5 or six but I need to know how many and specifically where they are located. Thanks, also the bleed order if anyone knows that.

Thanks

If you are simply flushing out fluid you only need to use the four, one at each wheel. If you have air trapped in the system, there is a 5th bleeder on the load sensing valve just above the diff. Some modles don't have these, I image depending of ABS and stability control options.
ABS units need to be bleed using a scan tool. Or you can put the truck into some ABS stops (safely in an abandon parking lot or such) and then rebleeding at the wheels.

So I am stumped, I have bled the brakes twice and I still have a soft pedal, it is only soft on the first push of the pedal and then it is totally firm if I push it right away after the initial push, almost like pumping the breaks. So the first push is soft and then it firms right up until I let up on the pedal again and then it is soft again on the next first pump of the brake. Any ideas.

Have you adjusted the rear brakes? If the shoes are no close to the drums, the first push will be soft as you have the extra travel to push the shoes out.
