65 MUSTANG front bleed screws

Junior Member
On my '65 Mustang, the front bleed screws are so close to the spindle casting that it is difficult to get the tubing to make such a sharp 90 and
slip on to the bleeder.
Is there a tube fitting available to solve this problem?
Thanks Fordbarn for your previous help and I know someone will have an answer to my current problem

I bought a set of brake lines from classic tube one time and the bonus was a small plastic cup with tubing to catch the fluid, had a small 90 degree rubber fitting on the plastic tube for the bleeder. I think I have seen the same part on a vacuum bleeder system at the parts store.
 
My problem is fitting the tubing on to the bleeder without a kink, not opening the bleeder

Art believe it or not looking on line at bleeder kits I seen a few that appear to have 90 elbows in them.walllyworld has some on their online site if they have a store near you may be worth your time to see if they have in store.my kit had one in it(vacuum pump)
 
Is it possible that the wheel cylinders are on the wrong sides? I never recall bleeding woes with the old Mustangs, Falcons or Comets.
 
Bob:
If the cylinders were on the wrong side, that would mean that the hose connection would be toward the front of the car. No, the brake cylinders are on the correct sides.
WC40951 on the left side
WC40952 on the right side
 
if they are dorman with offset bleeeder they should be correct.but if the parts man crossed them with raybestos.the raybestoe are not offset.it is just a thought not saying that is your problem.
