But who steals all the 10mm sockets???

I've found more of them in the junkyard than I've lost. Found that SnapOn one. That's my luck I guess.

Found this gem in the plow truck just yesterday.

I did wish it was a socket when I found it, but a win's a win.

took the radiator, hoses, etc, out of the 07 Silverado. guess what I found underneath? a 10mm nut driver, all beat up and missing the magnet

I tried bleeding them again myself with the bottle method, also had to fix the little part on the backing plate that's rivited that holds a lil spring and the shoes steady. it ripped out of the passenger side.

After that, I now seem to have brakes. Huzzauh!

I don't know if anyone already mentioned it, but for next time, if you have a compressor, I've got one of these cheap vacuum bleeders from Harbor Freight, it works fantastic. It's the only way I bleed brakes anymore.

The red banded one in my pic was on a 12" 3/8 extension attached to a 6" ratchet. Laying in the back seat of a car.
