    broke bleeder vavle on rear drums.

    well i blead my brakes today and i broke my rear passenger side bleeder valve.it was a bitch but the other side was fine.for some reason theres no fluid leaking out at all.but should i get this fixed soon?what parts are needed,just the backing plate?again i broke the bleader vavle it was so corroded and rusty it snapped.my brakes are working though but i want to fix this soon.what parts do i need i am going to the junkyard tomorrow.thanks.

    you may need the whole rear caliper if the broken bleeder valve is stuck and/or does not completely twist loose to be replaced by a new valve screw.
    Once upon a time I took a joyride in a Huayra...

      You COULD try to get the broken portion out of the caliper and get another fitting at ACE...but it would be to your best interest to replace the caliper.
