    Stoptech BBK bleeder seized into caliper...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Like the title says, I just picked up a used set of stoptech 332s and was having them installed when we found out that one of the bleeders had seized into one of the calipers. Now I am wondering if I am going to need to completely replace that caliper, have it refurbised by Stoptech of if there is some other cheaper faster fix that anyone is aware of.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    you dont need to, you just have to bleed them out as best as you can from the other 3 caliper bleeder ports.

    Actually, the bleeder pulled the thread from the caliper.

    Drill and tap it, and use a spacer to screw the bleeder into.
