Nightstrs build.

Looks good,

tapping the vice grips with a hammer works well for this, I wish you luck. I broke a bleeder before not fun.
If you do have to replace the caliper at least you got the core.

 

I replaced the calipers with some off of a 84 blazer. They fit like a glove!!! Took it out today and love it!

 

Fantastic, I'm glad it's working.

What parts did you end up putting into the swap?

.1/2 inch NPT pipe plugs from local auto parts store.
.84 blazer calipers and backing plate.
.brake pads, bolts, brake lines, rotors(78 cj) and seals from Napa.
.Had the hub machined 1/8
.willows universal adjustable proportioning valve.

I had huge discounts for a lot of the parts and I still ended up spending about $450. Without the discounts I'm sure I would have spent a little more than $600 but well worth it. I've herd of people spending about $250 and I have no idea how they do it...

 

Finally got to take her out for some good fun!!! We were out wheeling for about 5hours and everything went great!
