well you still have a small part of the bleeder screw left in the caliper right? well the easy out will grab it and then you can get the screw out. the easy out is basically a left handed drill bit if you know what i mean.
Cheap easy outs and too much 'off center' torque. You have to finesse it while steading the easy out with your other hand.
However, you can also just drill it out and re-tap the threads. Use Vaseline on the drill bit and go slow so as not to put chips into the caliper.

i was hoping that i wouldnt have to drill out the screw, and it happened on the last one that i try and take out what luck. is there anything else that i can try before resorting to drilling?
you broke 2 easy outs one a bleeder screw? you are the man lol. you have no other choice left but to drill it out. get a titanium plated bit. cutting oil recommended but i don't think you'll need it as you should have much bleeder screw left haha. also make sure to source out a bleeder screw.
well in this case being the man isnt so great. i already have the bleeder screw, in fact i have 2 extra ones lol. i tried everything to get it out. oh well sounds like a fun project for tomorrow
