I must be missing something. This doesn't seem like the specs to a bleed screw, but maybe
I am just ignorant.

I also need the data for the bleed screws on the air pack which is listed as such:
PAOZZ 2530-294-6747 SCREW,BLEEDER: BODY ASSEMBLY EA 2 * * * * 108 2
AND CYLINDER CAP
7376729(19207)

I suspect that they are a different size from the wheel cylinders.

Thanks!

Yeah it's hard to figure out , but says bleeder screw
If you sort trough it all this, the thread size is
7/16 - 20,unf
0.509 in. Long , so basicly 1/2 inch of threads

The bleeder screw is 7/16"?

You know the studs, nuts and bolts on the top of the M44 series knuckle (that hold the steering arm to the knuckle) are 9/16"?

Thanks guys! What about the size for the air pack? Are they the same? I am thinking not since the TM shows a different part number as I listed in my second post.
Thanks again for your help!

That's what came up in searching , it should be easy enough to with a caliper.
