Removing broken bleen nipple/How many types of rear calipers?
#1
The bleed nipple broke on one of my calipers for the "new" beam. Trying to get it out, but also looking for another caliper. 
How many types were there for the 306? Just one? Mine is from a 306 HDI, that is all I know about it.. 

Also; Any tips on getting a broken bleed nipple out? Tried drilling it, but the drillbit starts spinning in the drill Tongue
Also tired a reversed drill bit, but it just eats parts of the nipple in stead of moving it. Tried some heat and freezing. Heat just melts the rubber in the area next to it, so have to make up some sort of shield before I do that again.
