Good day,
Only because this was a pain in the ass and my local auto parts store LORDCO was not helpful in the least i am posting for the next guy.
The day started with my brakes failing unloading the Chally.. right into a light post
Upon further investigation; no brake fluid. Now need to bleed breaks. Rear LH has broke of bleeder. I dont have anyone to help me bleed the brakes.
Everything went sideways from braking a wheel cyl bolt, seized brake line(snap) @ wheel cylinder, broken easyouts, wrong wheel cylinder, sliced thumb on brake tubes, poor flaring tool..
Tried using a LORDCO grade 8 bolt for mounting the wheel cylinders. Broke that off tightening it down. Got ahold of dealer; discontinued. Obviously could order off the internet but that wasnt a quick option either.
Wheel Cylinder i was sold was a Raybestos# WC37235, this wheel cylinder has incorrect bleeder screw size of 1/4.
After being told "this is what the computer tells me!" I did some research and went back with the part number, ERRRRRR.
Pulled my casting # 3461776T (3/8-24 brake line inlet w 15/16 bore w 5/16-24 bleeder) and started researching the internet.
ANYWAY.. Parts List for the NEXT guy!
