1991 S10 brake bleeder screws

[dmunsey]

I have a 91 S10 pickup and need to bleed the brakes.Problem is cant get a wrench on the bleeder screws as they are recessed into the backing plate.Do I need some special wrench or what.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

can you use a 1/4 socket and ratchet on it? i like using sockets on em anyways, usually dont end up rounding off the corners.

doesnt seem to be enough room for a socket unless maybe a thin wall socket

That's the key.

Next time that I do my back brakes I'm looking into aftermarket cylinders, to see if that lip is eliminated.
If it is I'll buy them
