Tick Speed Bleeder Installation

How is it installed?! Everybody just says its the bomb, and its much easier and simply "install the bleeder". Well how exactly is it installed?

I'm assuming the bleed valve is completely removed and then the Tick bleeder is installed in its place? That's what I'm thinking but is dropping the bleed screw into the housing a risk? Then is it difficult to keep the copper washer in place while trying to screw the bleeder in place?

Yes, I lack knowledge in tranny/clutch work and first time doing anything with a clutch. The whole bleeding process was carefully studied

and a search failed for results.

Upon further review it seems that is impossible to install it without dropping the transmission....

basically want you said. there's a good chance of dropping the bleeder and washer. I installed it when the trans was out. its going to be a bitch with the trans in the car.

I did mine with my monster install, and laced it along my fuel lines toward the back and had just enough to stuff it into the drivers frame rail so I could take it out for one man bleeder operation
