Frst rear drum bleeding nipple thread worn

Postby parker93 on Sun Aug 11, 2013 4:36 pm

Having put on some st150 brakes on my frst I went to bleed the system but after loosening the rear nipple it wouldn't tighten back up , I took the thing out and the thread was on the nipple .. Tried to re tap but not enough room to fit tool in or get drill in there straight ..
Was wondering if anyone could help or knew a way I could patch her up lol .. Thanks

If its on the rear drums, just get a new slave cylinder
