Bleeding brakes with a vacuum pump.

There was some discussion on the 63/64 Cadillac Website regarding how to bleed brakes with a vacuum pump, and needed to bleed the brakes on my '02 Escalade EXT after installing new rotors, calipers and pads, and recorded this short video showing how it is done. It is not a 63 or 64 Cadillac, but it is the same procedure.

Comment by Kim K Kaiser on July 29, 2017 at 1:03am: where would you get a vacuum pump like that??

Comment by Anders on December 23, 2016 at 9:32am: Perfect Jason. Thanks.

Also liked the fact that the camera was mounted on a tripod or similar. Some of your other videos makes me "sea sick" from the moving camera. But this was so much better.

Have bought the very same kit you are using and its on my desk now, awaiting the big job replacing suspension and the steering parts.

Been looking on the For Sale forum. Not sure if possible or not, but it might be good if there would be sub-forums so cars go in one area and maybe spares could be sorted in a way as well. No idea…Continue

And therefore it tends to sit there and grab and lunge a bit. So until now, i have been putting the car in Neutral at the lights to stop this happening.

I've had the car dyno tuned and…

Can you help? Driveshaft Question....

Posted by Chris on May 30, 2021 at 8:55am 1 Comment 0 Likes

Hello!

Newbie to the group here - we have already found tons of invaluable information on the board, so thanks! We are restoring a 1963 Series 62 Convertible. We are wondering if anyone knows of a source to buy the propellor yoke flange (that bolts to the pinion flange) for the driveshaft? One of our ears partially broke off. Not sure if we can buy just the yoke flange as an aftermarket part, or if it has to be rebuilt by a welder/fab guy? Maybe a salvage yard for a source? Again, any…
