Default Motive brake bleeder

I wanna bleed my brakes I was gonna use the motive brake bleeder, I was curious if anyone knows if they have an adapter for it. I was someone else talking about making one using an master cylinder cap and just drilling it out and threading a 1/4 npt fitting in. Has anyone tried this and would this work fine just wanna check before I buy anything. Also is this the right master cylinder cap for a 96 xj Amazon says is saying it is but you know how they are sometimes

Yes, they make an adapter that fits Chrysler MC reservoirs. That's what I use. Check out Motive's website to find the right one.

Is it going to be motive 1107. I saw that but wasn't sure cause some of the Amazon reviews said it don't fit. So that one is direct fit?

This is what mine looks like. I do notice it's not a great seal with the reservoir cap. It looks like the gasket could be a tad bit thicker. But it works.
