Rear Drum Brake Bleeder Nut

[Sheriff_Austin]

Can anyone give me quickly the size (not sure if its metric or standard). Also, it looks like the drum bleeder is "buried". Will a normal brake bleeding wrench do the job?

8mm deep socket (5/16 sae is same size)

Thanks Paul.

About the buried bleeder valve -- am i playing "switcheroo" between the deep socket and shoving a hose on the valve? or am i missing something, because the way it is, unless its a go through socket, i cant do both.

EDIT: Forget it: Russell Speedbleeders. Problem solved.

While I'm sure the speed bleeders work well(i've looked up the part numbers), I just break the bleeder loose and do as you suggested and run the bleed tube through the socket. I just do the bleeding by hand and tighten with ratchet when done. I know, I'm a cheapskate.
