If you have not bled the fronts, I'd do them as well.

Plus, I thought it was an interesting point when I read in my 1969's manual that you should always start at the wheel "Closest" to the master cylinder. I had always believed you started at the wheel furthest from the master cylinder, and bled many a system that way successfully.

But getting up into the 80's maybe you have to do it starting with the closest wheel first?
