    Default Russell Speed Bleeders installed....

    Sorta. I got a set of 4 and started in the rear. They went on no problem and when I got to the front the new bleeders were WAY TO BIG!!! The tip would go into the threaded hole but the threads were not going to come close. Anyone know why? My truck is a 6-2003 so it supposedly had the caliper upgrade at the factory. Maybe it didn't.....

    Ideas!?!?!?

    Amazon is not great with matching part numbers at least that's the experience I've had with them.

    Don't forget....there's a fifth bleeder at the proportioning valve and it isn't the same size as the front or back brakes. I just ordered two new ones for the rear and one for the proportioning valve from the dealer to replace the rusted out ones.

    Hoping to get it in within the next couple of days since they weren't at the local distribution center.

    Yup, it's up top over the rear diff. Up by the brake proportion valve thing.

    I would hope it's the same size as one or the other, I see there is no listing for it on that site. Now I want these. I'd bleed my brakes just for fun if I had these.

    I bought Speed Bleeders for my Corolla when I upgraded the brakes and did the rear-wheel disk conversion. They are a lot nicer than "Honey, can you come here and help me bleed my brakes....?"

    On the Russell website, they only list one part number for all Tundras 00-06 (front) and don't even list a part number for the rears.

    Go here instead.

    They list the bleeders for the later Gen 1's and are a helluva lot cheaper that Russells.

    I've read that the speed bleeders tend to wear out quickly and don't seal properly after several bleedings. Just what I've read from a couple other general forums, so I decided to go with the original.

    OP, here are the part numbers for the rear and proportioning valve (Toyota numbers). Maybe you can find the equivalent:

    Rear Bleeder Plugs: 47547-12010
    Proportioning Valve Bleeder Plug: 47547-27030
    Rubber caps for Plugs (still called plugs): 31478-30010
