2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission speed bleeder for EGR rear caliper (78 El dorado)

[rotohead]

I need to know the size of speedbleeder screw for the calipers used by EGR rear disk brake conversion which are '78 El Dorado calipers. Anybody switched the stock bleeder screw to a speedbleeder?

We tried the speedbleeders on mine, but couldn't get them to work. I kept the stock ones in.

Have had speedbleeders in two different trucks over eight yrs and they've all worked perfectly. Must use the rubber caps on them though to keep corrosion out. I'm a happy customer.

The size is SB3824.

Purchased them and they installed and functioned perfectly. Don't know what TAMPLINEMAN's problem with them is/was but to make searching fruitful I thought I'd follow up with the part#.

We tried three different sets on mine truck and all of them wouldn't bleed. I got all of them from Glenn at EGR. I'm not saying don't get them or they're a bad product, they just didn't work for us.

Got these directly from speedbleeder.com so maybe that has something to do with it. I won't deal with Glen or EGR anymore. Poor customer service IMO.

When I received all three packages, they all had been opened. Why? I couldn't figure it out.
