John-
I just rebuilt and installed my calipers several weeks ago. I bought the
bleeders from the local Nissan dealer. Thought they were a little expensive
@ $3/piece. ;-) I saw the earlier posts regarding the "speed bleeders".
Sounds good but I would check their compatibility with our cylinders as
there is actually a BB sized ball bearing that the bleeder presses against
to seat with the cylinder. The "ball bearings" were rusted and pitted on
mine. I simply used two ball bearings from the front wheel of an old
bicycle (if your using used ball bearing, make sure they don't have ANY flat
or worn spots! I speced them out with calipers and they were exactly the
same size as the oem part!
Enjoy
Nathan
