The only ones I've seen on their website appear to be vacuum bleeder setups unless I mistook some of them. I've used one cheap hand operated vacuum bleeder and found it easier to get a second person to work the pedal. Also only had to deal with my own vehicles then. Now I've got 4 vehicles to maintain and all are due for new brake fluid. Our Kia still has the original (at least since we got it in 2017) fluid. MIL's 4runner I have bled to clear fluid when i had the rear axle out two years ago.
Yup the Burb is 1500 so vacuum booster! I totally forgot about that....

Dropped the suburban off for alignment last night and picked it up today. Overall, i think i did a fair job of setting it straight using a tape measure alone. Also had them adjust t-bars to level it out before alignment.

New tool arrived today via USPS to my in-law's house. Motive products pressure bleeder kit no. 0252. Maybe this weekend will include some brake work and see if it really makes it simpler.
Give us a review on the bleeder kit when you have used it as I am looking to something like it myself.

Haven't had the chance to mess with the brakes yet but have worked on replacing weather strips on the tailgate and hatch a little bit at a time. So far I've gotten the long perimeter strip and tailgate pieces replaced. The perimeter strip was about 3 inches longer than needed. Thanks Precision.

Whatever was inside the groove that clips on the panels was nasty to clean off but not as hateful as the broken down foam behind the tailgate. Still need to clean that up and find a suitable replacement material before putting the cover back on.

To be continued at a later time/date, dinner detail awaits.
