Bluestone Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I'd like to get Speed Bleeders for my 2000 Legacy GT Wagon but their website http://www.speedbleeder.com/ lists part #s for Subes 'till '97 only. http://www.speedbleeder.com/automobile_applications.htm#Sterling I emailed them a while back about bleeders for my 2000 but they haven't a clue. Duh!:-\ Does anyone here know which ones (for both front and rear brakes) would fit my Subie? http://www.speedbleeder.com/size.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I would venture to guess they'd use the SB7100. What size wrench do the current bleeders use? 8mm or 10mm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I got the Russell speed bleeders from summitracing.com for my '96 and '00 and they were different sizes. Darn if I can remember which year took what size. I know for the '00 I removed a bleeder, measured the threads, and ordered by size because the application chart didn't list '00. edit: ok I checked my order history and it was 7MM X 1.0, Russell 639570 The other was 10mm x 1.0 Thread Russell 639560 Hm....now way was it... I'm pretty sure the '00 was the 7MM x 1.0 But if you have the GT you might have different calipers than my '00obw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluestone Posted January 3, 2008 Author Share Posted January 3, 2008 I haven't yet bled my Subes brakes myself(it's been done at a shop, before; I've got back issues so don't do as much under my car as I'd like) so I don't yet know if the bleeders take an 8mm or 10mm wrench. I checked on-line at a Subaru parts place and it seems that Sube Legacies from '97-'01 use the same front calipers, while rear ones were the same from '90-'99 with '00-04 using different ones. It's essentially the same with OBWs. I think #SB7100 Speedbleeders would work for my front brakes and SB1010 probably for the rear, but I'll look into it further.
