2001 4.7 4WD with 11" drums in back, 275k on clock. overhauling brakes and cannot find bleeder screws that fit. Napa 6858 were too long and too big. Dorman 13901 look like the right size but don't seem to have the right thread pitch. Of course I'm assuming brakes are OEM but standard pads and shoes fit fine. Anybody know another part # that is known to fit? One of them was really seized in so I'm being really careful to avoid a cross thread or oversized situation.

Thanks

 

I would just replace the wheel cylinders...they should come with bleeders?

 

True they are cheap

 

Well the issue is that I need FRONT bleeder screws. The rears are fine and easy to find (might replace the cylinders anyway) but I need to replace the front ones and don't really want to buy new calipers since they seem OK. Stealer can order them for $5 a piece but you have to order a bag of 8...

 

Was their a joke in their? something seams amiss like what??

Did you try rockauto.com ?

 

Visit a junkyard

 

Dirty threads were the culprit. Ran a 3/8-24 tap through all the bleeder ports to clean up the threads and everything fits like it was supposed to.
