Tim,

 

I can show you these balls (lol).  Did you get speed bleeders for you brakes?  We have some more parts cars to rip apart, so I will make time.

They ship out of IL if I remember correctly, so they got here pretty quick, I am in WI. Just watch out doing the front brakes, you have to remove the ball that is under the stock bleeder in order for the new ones to fit. I magnetized a screw driver to reach the ball.
