I have to drive to Wilmington from Raleigh today and I just finished my knuckle rebuild kit on my toyota last night. In the process of bleeding the brakes I broke the right rear bleeder nipple off in the drum so now there is still air trapped that I can get out. Any ideas of how to fully bleed the brakes without that one side being bled? OR any quick fixes that might be safe for the road? Has to be done by 12 noon!!!
Brake help ASAP

you could take the line off at the brake cylinder and bleed it there. you will have to have the drum off so you can't push the pedal. You will have to gravity bleed it. You won't be able to fully get the air out.
If you are good with drum brakes, remove the brakes and take the whole cylinder out and replace it. The bleeder is attached to it. Then the problem is solved.
