One smiley: :rock:

Nice touch on the clutch bracket. It had crossed my mind in the past to have a brake stopper attached to a strut brace, Nismo, Cusco and I'm sure many other companies make these.

Nice one bud, good work as always.

I bought one of those Powerhands a few weeks back too, hands down one of the best flare tools for the money. I used a BluePoint (Snap-on) hand held one before this and this one flares better and more consistent and is about a third of the price. Highly recommend too! :wink:

Was looking at the same bleeding kit on ebay, but I won't bother based on your experience.

I've used the gunson auto brake bleeding kit before and it's been great.

I have the same kit. The problems are caused by air leaking passed the threads on the bleeders...

Grease added to the neck of each bleed nipple helps. I found it too fiddly and haven't used it since. I thought it would save time.
