So a looooonnng shot but has anyone got a proportional valve for a disc front drum rear Mopar ?
I frantically ringing around UK suppliers to try and find one, so I can go to the one car show I had planned, which is this weekend...
So far I've tried wasp (mark is coming back to me) and us auto parts, who are a 2 week lead time
Proportional valve / brake distribution

I have very little experience with all this but I presume it should fit ? Ie the brake line connections will be the same threads ?Pete.S wrote:i have a universal wilwood adjustable laying around somewhere....
If you come across it, could you fire over a part number and I will have a look into it buddy...
Many thanks
That is the thing with after market proportioning valves, the threads. Catches many an unwary pilgrim out.
Usually the 'domestic' variety has the more usual UNF/Metric type union fittings, rather than the odd ball american stuff that can show up AN etc.
No biggy, just chop the ends off the pipe flare & bung on the appropriate fitting.

I've put the old unit back in, and ive now got rear brake fluid flowing through so the shuttle has unsiezed itself. Ironically, one of the new rear cylinders is leaking like a sieve, but US automotive are sending a new one out
Hopefully I can get it all working just to get it over to Plymouth, for the car show, and then await a new unit from the states

The lack of pressure in the lines doing it this way prevents the shuttle from displacing from its centre position and thus avoids shutting off an outlet port.
I did think this for future issues. thought about buying one of those bleed systems that Dave recommended, to get around pressurising the system and moving that shuttle
