Default Bleeder valve
I have a new caliper that needs installed and it didn't come with a bleeder valve. How hard is it to get the old one off the old caliper?

If there isn't much corrosion, it should come out fairly easy. Worst case, it breaks and you have to make a parts run...for the bleeder screw you should have gotten with the new caliper.
