"I was doing a suspension overhaul on my most recent truck build and had to replace the front brake lines. Getting these Blazers to bleed down doesn't always go smoothly. I also needed a way to flush the lines from the master cylinder quickly. Since I am a hobbyist mechanic, I don't have a lot of time to work on these projects, so I need tools that are quick and accurate. I found this brake bleeder while looking through the Summit Racing catalog and watched a couple of youtube videos showing how it worked. I bought one and was able to bleed the system down in less than 30 minutes and had everything working great.
I also use the bleeder for maintenance on some of my other collector cars:
My 1965 Mustang and my 2007 Solstice GXP:
OH YES!! I would definitely recommend the reverse brake bleeder to others! I have used other brake bleeder tools in the past and found that this tool was quicker and the ability to flush the lines directly from the master cylinder is a great benefit as well.
I will be building up a '59 Chevy pickup this year as well, building a new brake system from scratch. Definitely need it for that project. No pics of that truck yet.
Thanks!
