I am replacing my brake fluid and stripes the bleeder valves

[Zebby97]

I drained and replaced half of my brake fluid, I replaced the fluid and did everything right....except I couldn't budge BOTH rear drain plugs and rounded the bleeder valves. So I didn't get all of the fluid replaced for fear of not being able to tighten the bleeder valves back on. I'll need to vise grip them of now, but need to replace them with new bleeders.

Sorry, I forgot to mention, does anyone know what part number the bleeder valves are?

Ran into the same problem Zebby has. I replaced all 4 rotors and pads about a week ago and just today ordered 4 rebuilt calipers for my 03 Silverado. . The boots were torn on both rear calipers and the right front caliper is hanging up.

 

In the meantime I also just replaced all the stepper motors in the gauge cluster along with LED's for the cluster and heater controls

 

Will it ever end ?
