Looking for correct size brake bleeder wrench size for a 2005 dakota?

 

Have you looked anywhere yourself or you want someone on here to look for you?? It's a standard size, probably 1/4" open end wrench.

 

if you have a Harbor Frieght Tools store, go buy a brake kit from them. $20 it will be worth it.

 

Bleed screws are often rusted into place to some degree and open end or adjustable wrenches will spread enough to slip & round the heads off. I use flare nut wrenches that are much thicker and partially wrap around the screw head to prevent the spreading and slipping.

 

I cheat on mine - I will loosen them with a six point deep throat socket, then use my open end wrench to open and shut them.

Let's see, Dodge forum, place for asking such questions. 'probably' 1/4" What's the point in posting a reply if you do not know ?

 

Do you have any small wrenches? If so, grab a handful, crawl under there, and see which one fits.

 

The 2005 FSM (available for download from this site) doesn't specify the nut size. It does offer the order for bleeding the brakes, assuming that is what you're doing.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
MANUAL BLEEDING

NOTE: Bleed procedure should be in this order (1)
Right rear (2) Left rear (3) Right front (4) Left front.

Since it doesn't give the nut size, I would assume they are standard nuts, probably metric. My guess is somewhere between 9-11mm (my guess is 11-mm). If you take those with you, you'll find the right one.
