Hi all
I was wondering what you all do if this Brake Proportioning Valve is going kaput. I can not find a place where i can buy a new one.
Do you drive without it ?
Do you use one from another car model.

Buy a used one from the classifieds, Busted Bus, or other type of junkyard.

Mine was giving me fits in my '71 - I took it apart, cleaned it out real well so the ball would move freely inside, cut a new gasket and put it back together. Has been working great for several years now.
