This would work OK for turning it, but I don't see how you could put a hose on the bleeder, in order to do the bleeding....... you know, other end of hose in a jar of brakefluid..??? -----Original Message----- From: Jimmy Sanby <SanbyJ@telkom.co.za> To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM <vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM>; mccomas@shore.intercom.net <mccomas@shore.intercom.net> Date: Monday, March 13, 2000 5:12 AM Subject: Re: brake shoes cont..... 7mm wrench |I use a 7mm allen drive with a �" socket, no bending etc required. | |>>> McComas_Glenn <mccomas@SHORE.INTERCOM.NET> 03/13/00 11:36AM >>> |Lee Roesner, Northbrook Office, wrote |........ going out tomorrow to buy fluid and a 7mm wrench (right one I |hope?) and |bleed brakes. | |Lee, |The typical 7mm box wrench will be lots easier to use if you take it |someplace where they have an acetylene torch.
