I just went in to bleed my brakes before next week's event and I noticed that one of my bleeder screws in the front is pretty rounded. I should be able to get it out but I'd like to replace it.

Nissan is saying they can order one for $25 or so but it will take a few days. I believe the head is 7/16" but if I know the thread and the pitch I'm sure I can source one at a local store.

Any help is appreciated.

 

bring it to a lowes or home depot they can size it there.

 

My guess is that it's metric and HD or Lowes won't have it, especially something like a brake bleeder screw. Auto parts place would be the best bet. He's probably try to avoid having to remove the screw beforehand.

 

Yeah. It's not leaking now and I don't want to pull it to find out the thread/pitch and then find out I can't get it for a week.

 

10mm x 1.0 Thread, 33mm Overall Length, Steel, Pair.

I just ordered a pair of Russell Performance self-bleeders. I'll swap out the rounded one for one of these. Hopefully my Motiv Bleeder won't **** with the self-bleeding screws.

 

hey how did those bleeders work out for you? i need some badly now and cant seem to find any for a good price

 

The bleeders used in stoptech kits are a direct fit, any one of our distributors should be able to get them for you. They are also the same as the bleeders used in EVOs, STi's Vipers and others.

 

Wow. Good to know. I probably would have gone with the stoptechs, but was desperate and found speedbleeders for a good price.

I went with these speedbleeders -
