I'll need this in 7/16" size. I put zip ties to the tools, OEM bleeder, etc. to make sure I don't drop them into to the transmission.


Here is the hole. The clutch looks pretty clean, in good condition; no leaks, etc.


With the new bleeder on



Re-used the tabs from the discarded transmission line and it worked great!


I could even re-use the tabs between lines:
