Speed Bleeders

Anyone got a set of these?

www.speedbleeder.com

I just got my father-in-law a 4 sets for his Fords and went ahead and got me a set for the Maxima. Anyone know if SB1010 will fit (M10 X 1.0). This was all they had listed for the Maxima through 97.

I have never used them but they seem like a good idea. I use a vacuum pump to bleed my brakes.

I thought about getting them, but then I'm now thinking about getting the Power Bleeder...

At least with this I can use it on multiple cars, as many times as I want.

Here's another application chart for you. 10mm is the correct size. When I ordered mine, the guy said all the Maxima through at least 2003 used the same bleeder screws. And yes, I really like mine. I bought the Russell's

Pep Boys had equivalents for less so I don't think you need to buy them from speedbleeders.com (unless you want stainless steel).

Another point and this is somewhat embarrassing but to prevent others from hitting the same issue, I replaced mine only to find out that the ones on the car were already speed bleeders. This may not be OEM as I had a steel lines installed awhile ago and the kit may have had them and I didn't know. Just as an FYI, they do make things easier and its worth doing.
