      Speed bleeders for Wilwood calipers

      Time to make my brakes work, and I'd like to swap out the bleed screws for speed bleeders. Anybody know the thread size to get for Wilwood calipers? 1/4-28?



      thanks!

      OK, so I now know that the fronts are 3/8-24, and the backs are 1/8-27 NPT.

      Next question: I can find 3/8-24 speed bleeders, but not 1/8-27. Anybody know of a source for them?

      Now, you could also try talking to the guys over at Precision Brakes and asking them about it too. Oh, and are you sure it's not metric for some reason?

      I measured the threads and I got an email back from Wilwood. So it's definitely 1/8-27 pipe.

      Precision brakes, eh? Good idea.
