[urq] RE : Broken bleeder removal: tips ?

[Schaible, David]

For $50C to rebuild and powder coat is a deal, I think I paid $25 for the seal kit and bleeder screw.  I thought about getting the g60 setup as they are available and cheap but I am ok with the lighter single piston setup. So far, rear calipers and rear exhaust is only non original equipment on my auto......for what it's worth....not much other than blah blah.

Well here, my FLAPS can rebuilt mine for 75$ each, and Canadian Tire
(where I got mine 2 years ago) sells them for 85$ each. That's why I
want at least to try to remove the bleeders... But you're right, if I
can get them for 30$, it's a no brainer. I will ask around to find such
a shop.

As for the steel only calipers (late 83 to 86), they are 55$ each, with
a much bigger bleeder (like 10 mm) but I need the corresponding
carriers. Since we are upgrading Eric's car to the G60 setup, maybe I
can "borrow" them from his car ? :-)...

Or, like most of you, I can upgrade me too and forget about these
fragile Al/Fe calipers for good... 

Decisions, decisions...
