Re: '62 rear drums

[Roger Pettigrew <dodger7998@xxxxxxx>]

the bleeder valve is for releasing air from the brake system, the problem  
is the drums are mounted to a hub that is on a tappered/keyed axle shaft,  
the problem has nothing to do with the brakes themselves other than the name 
of  some of the parts that need to be removed to access the wheel cylinder  
itself

OK,  but if the bleeder valve is broken, why isn't air being introduced 
into the  system. Sorry if it is a dumb question, but I was just thinking, 
maybe we are  missing the obvious? Drill out the bleeder valve?
