I am having trouble getting the master cylinder nut off to bleed the brakes of my 52 pickup. I do not have a socket that size. Any thoughts? Is there a specific socket size? or tool made for this?
Thanks in advance for the help!
Take care,
Steven

Use a set of calipers and measure the nut, that would be the size. Just an idea. | | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 107 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2009 Posts: 107 | Thanks all for your replies. The master cylinder was removed because the nut was rounded off. It will need a repair kit as it is leaking as well.....I still love my truck.
Later
Take care,
Steven
