Tick Speed Bleeder

Finally started to button up the car after the header swap and clutch swap, installed the bleeder on the new slave. Within 5 minutes it was fully bled with a fantastic pedal. Never bled it the factory way, but I imagine that was less than fun where it is placed. Would definitely recommend picking this up if you have a opportunity to install it.

For sure the easiest way to do it and is why we install a remote bleeder with every clutch

Changed my fluid with every oil change... Why not.... It's an extra 6 bucks or so, and your clutch will thank you!

I agree. The speed bleeder is just awesome

Is there a write-up or video on how to bleed the Tick Speed Bleeder? Where do you bleed it from? Under the car or from the engine compartment?

I ran mine up through the gear shift hole in the floor and sat in the driver's seat with a plastic cup and two wrenches. Had assistant keep eye on the reservoir and filling it up.

Best clutch bleeding experience ever.

I don't know how I ever lived without it, it is THAT good!

My only regret is not installing their master as well when my last LS7 clutch was installed.

Here is my remote bleeder, It's mounted to the transmission mount cross member. I usually put the wife in the car and pick it up on the lift about 2-3 feet and she pumps and holds the pedal while I crack the bleeder. I keep crawling out and topping off the reservoir every few cracks.

Off topic but does anyone know the P/N for the adapter that fits over the clutch reservoir for the Motive Power Bleeder?

Thanks for the responses guys. I'll get under the car this week and search for it. I did not do my clutch install, but I'm sure it's routed like in the pic you posted conan. My fluid still looks pretty good, but never hurts to change it out.
