power bleeder parts list

[Chinookpilot77]

I am looking to build my own power bleeder, as I can't seem to find a pre made one to buy. I was hoping someone could talk me through building one, including a detailed parts list. Any help would be appreciated!

Here's the link to the Recovry4x4 style power bleeder, This is what I made and it works fantastic.

thank you for the information and taking the time to post, but two of these links dont work and I can't tell what product is getting sold on the third...

Yup, the links don't work...must be something with the upgrade

Get a pump sprayer, like a weed sprayer, from your local hardware store. Assorted1/8 pipe fittings and pipe to get at the M/C top..brass preferred, your flavor of BF, and away you go!

Get the Motive 0080 1 Gallon universal. All you need is an air compressor quick disconnect with adapters for a master cylinder cover-simple.

Ditto on the Motive. Gimp and I recently bled the brakes on a 109 and it works great.

I agree- the Motive is a good unit.

http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?t=3229 Can be as simple or elaborate as you like. Bare minimum is a gallon sprayer with a pressure relief valve and a long 1/8NPT nipple. Connect with hose clamp and it's done. I've built many and like to use a pressure gauge and a ball valve in the mix.

I know this is an older thread but it seemed the appropriate place to put this. The cap on my 71 M35a2 is 1-1/4" x 18tpi
It is the same size as:

1937-1959 Chevy GMC pickup metal (careful, some years use 1-5/8 ) ~$8-9
also possibly 1939-48 Ford passenger and some truck caps

Also if the DIY spirit is not present then:

Complete power bleeder kit ~$78

Power bleeder cap/hose for above(separately) ~$35

I also found some trailer caps check Atwood, Titan or Dico brake actuator caps in google
