ghetto_zhetto Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 I just got my 76 620 kc a few months ago, ive been trying to re-do a lot of wiring, im getting closer to getting my engine running so i decided to get my brakes working. So I replaced my master cylinder, and went to bleed them, heres the problem my drivers front bleeder screw broke in half when I tried to loosen it. then the drivers rear bleeder stripped out. I was able to loosen both on the passenger side. is there any place that sells the piece where the bleeder screw and lines connect, I got new cylinders, but i have no clue where to find the y fitting things. and i tried to post pictures, but it wouldn't let me 1 Quote Link to comment
Datmoon Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Welcome! I'm new too. I've had success using Rock Auto for parts. Here is a link for those bleeders. If you need them sooner, I'd get a part number off Rock Auto and call your local part stores. Brake bleeders are on most cars so it shouldn't be hard to find. Good luck. .As far as pics go, many people use photobucket, or imgur, etc. Once you upload a pic to one of those hosting sites, they'll give you a url to be able to paste into the comment editor here. Hope that helps. Cheers. 2 Quote Link to comment
ghetto_zhetto Posted June 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 I can find the breeders no problem, there's like a valve or something that the lines and breeders screw into that I need, I'd post pics but it wouldn't let me 1 Quote Link to comment
ghetto_zhetto Posted June 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 I need that brass looking part where the bleeder screws into https://m.imgur.com/account/Ghettozhetto/images/63p2NWb 1 Quote Link to comment

flatcat19 Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 I have 2 of them. But-they're from a 521. They SHOULD work. Cover the 6 bucks of shipping and they're yours. EDIT: The 2 I have are for the rear. Quote Link to comment
ghetto_zhetto Posted June 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 I think those will work, they look exactly the same at least, do you have the bolts that hold em to the wheel cylinder, i may need those also 1 Quote Link to comment
ghetto_zhetto Posted June 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 and do you have paypal? 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 You shouldn't need the bolts. I don't think I have those anyways. The bleeder T's are at my work. Let me make sure the actual valves are loose before I commit. Check this thread tomorrow morning and you'll have your answer and a pic or two. 1 Quote Link to comment
ghetto_zhetto Posted June 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 just email me instead, n.vaughn122@gmail.com and if you don't have the bolts thats okay. i just know for a fact i need those t's 1 Quote Link to comment
Datmoon Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Ah, I see. I think this part comes with the wheel cylinder assembly, when you buy it new. Front Right - Rear - 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Ah, I see. I think this part comes with the wheel cylinder assembly, when you buy it new. Front Right - Rear - I tried that. No. Those are old pictures. Any cylinder you buy from Rock Auto, NAPA, AutoZone, etc, that has the T shown will NOT come with it. I bought part brands I did not want only because they were showing the T. Color me pissed the fuck off upon arrival. I was on a tight timeline when I was shopping for replacements. Best is to find usable ones from yard or get your broken valves unstuck. Hint: impact is your friend. 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 521 should be SAE threads and the 620 are metric threads. 1 Quote Link to comment
ghetto_zhetto Posted June 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 So what is there to do? Back to begging on social media I guess 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 As long as your through bolt is in good shape, nothing to worry about. I'll get you an email in a minute. 1 Quote Link to comment
Datmoon Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 My original comment was negative, so I removed it. Good luck Zhetto, hopefully that connector works out. Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Ease up. No damn parts store will be able to actually tell you crap. I've been in that industry for the past ten years. 99% of the counter guys will never figure out what he is talking about anyways. I can guarantee that part is not available from O'Reilly and AutoZone. Gatos experiences are not wrong. He's trying to save a guy a headache and he's willing to ship out parts for just cost of shipping. Why the douchery about him offering help? Quote Link to comment

datsun 160J SSS Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 GOOD INFO. Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 The inner diameter of the T between the models should be the same. I can't imagine why they would be different. It is the through bolt threads that is different. PM me your address and they'll be on their way to you early next week. 2 Quote Link to comment

ghetto_zhetto Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Hey flatcat if you are still willing to send those fittings to me I'd still be willing to try it 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 PM me your address. 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 As long as your through bolt is in good shape, nothing to worry about. I'll get you an email in a minute. Except the brake line on the 521 banjo fitting is SAE inverted flare and the 620 banjo brake line fitting is Metric inverted flare 10mm x 1. You will have to cut the steel brake line and change the fitting to SAE or try to find an adapter. I know Gene Knight on here has them for the 620. Pm him. Quote Link to comment
