When changing the front brakes do I need to bleed the bakes at all, or will i not need to disconect the caliper lines??

If yo are just changing the pads and/or discs you should not need to disconnect the callipers. You will most likely need to push the poston back into the calliper and you may find that you need to open the bleed nipple to do this, but try without first as it should not be necessary.
