    DIY Brake Bleeding setup

    Has anyone built one of these?

    I'm thinking about throwing one together, as it looks cheap and quicker than buying the Motive (which is essentially the same thing).

    Hopefully, I still have the old Miata MC so that I can scavenge the cap, otherwise this may need to wait until I can hit a junk yard.

    See any reason why I shouldn't try it?

    Try it. The cap is the only issue I see plastic flexes to much.

    Worse case, you can buy the billet Motive cap and plug the hose into your rig.

    I see Jegs has the Master Cyl one, for 37.99. At that price, I'd be better off buying the Miata whole kit for 69.99.

    I'll throw out some feelers to the part-out guys first.
