DEP Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 Hi, I ve just fitted my new discs and wilwood 4 pot calipers, Now i need to bleed them, but i dont have a suitable spanner for them, as you might be able to see from the pic below, there is a recess for the bleed nipple, Anybody know where i can get a spanner to fit please http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/images/midiliteweb2.jpg
Rick Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 you need a brake pipe spanner theyre slimmer with a slit in
Posse Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 What rick said ian brake pipe spanner 10mm i have one here if you need to borrow it

john123 Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 the bleed nipple is the black part of it i had the same problem but had a 6mm spaner to go on it
Noodles Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 I sightly filed a cheap 6mm spanner open a bit
john123 Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 i just used a cheap spaner didnt have to file it down
PIG Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 1/4 drive socket on it ian if you aint already done it fella
MightySprocket Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 did mine with a normall spanner, only took 15 mins to bleed em all, easiest i've ever done
Krusty Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 Wilwood use a 1/4" AF bleed nipple(measured across the flats), go and get yourself a proper spanner that fits well.

escort greg Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 As has been said the black part is the bleeding part and i think a six mm2 spanner ring offset fits
