I want to bleed the rear brakes but I cannot find a bleed nipple... My manual seems to indicate one but the picture is not very clear. I had the wheel off but cannot see anything that looks like a bleeder valve or nipple. Help..

The bleed valve on a caliper or wheel cylinder (if you have drum rear brakes) looks just like a grease fitting. You open the bleed valve with a small wrench, usually 10 mm or 8 mm. A box end wrench or a flared open wrench is the best to use to prevent rounding off of he bleeder screw if an open wrench slips. sometimes bleeder valves have a small rubber cap on them which you need to remove.

So the bleeder valves are located directly on the calipers on the front brakes and on the backside of the wheel cylinders on the rear drum brakes. They can be accesed without removing the wheels or brake drums.
