Get the less cheapazz american metal. ;)
No easy way to tell which brand won't do that...depends on the area,
corrosion factor, and quality of the part. Personally, I've never had
problems with NAPA parts.

Subject: DML: Dak Wheel Cylinder Woes
With the brakes on my Dak feeling spongy (quick bleed job last time), I went
to bleed them again. Last time, which was ~6 months ago, I replaced the rear
wheel cylinders because the bleed nipples broke off.
Well, guess what! The bleed nipples broke off again. ~6 months old.
How does one avoid this with the new cheapazz chinametal? Is teflon tape a
good idea on the bleed nipple threads? Or better yet, any sources on decent
quality wheel cylinders? I got the last ones from AZ.
