Brake genuis' unite. i got a quick ?
ok, so my actuator screw may be stripped. where do i find a new one. i tried searching, and looked everywhere. i just got my 18019028 gm# caliper rebuild kit, no actuator screw though plze help.! again i need the actuator screw. and i have a steel line to the rear driver side caliper. i mean its solid with ribs on it. do i need to replace it??i know that the passenger rear caliper has a rubber braker line. im doing a complete overhaul on the brakes. should last another 25 years

is it bad to use Teflon on the bleeder screws? last time they didnt seal that well, i used a little Teflon, that was two years ago though.

I don't think it's bad per se, but they shouldn't need it. If the bleeder won't seal on its seat, then the caliper or the bleeder is bad.

youre pretty smart. im going to get new bleeder screws, calipers are good. the only thing thats holding me back is the aircompressor to blow out the pistons, im going to pickup a tank tomorrow. but um, it is cool to use gas rated teflon tape right?
