i installed my baer kit today. i was having a bad enough day after i realized that i was sold a 12" kit instead of a 13" kit. got it all done and went to bleed the brakes. bled the right side fine, then went to brake the left side loose, and nothing. the bleeder was frozen in there. i put a box wrench on there and tried to hammer the wrench and knock it loose and in the process, rounded it off pretty good. i ended up removing the caliper, putting the bleeder in a vice, and getting it out that way. but when i got the bleeder out, it also pulled out all the threads in the caliper. whenever this happened at work, we just sold a new caliper. but this is a pretty expensive caliper. just had it rebuilt and powder coated. has anyone ever put a helicoil in a caliper? i dont want to do it and find that it wont work with the new bleeder screw. i was going to tap some bigger threads in there, but im unsure if i can get a bigger bleeder screw. any advice?
