I would still change that valve just because.

Even with test vehicles that had fluid changed out regularly, occasionally we would still get a valve that would hang up on us after a few years of service.

Glazing is not a characteristic of light use as frequently thought of, it is from quick high heat events where the organics deep in the friction compound that haven't had the chance to normally carbonize in use vaporize and solidify on the running surface. I.E., if the rear brakes are not working, you have a better chance of glazing front brake pads then when everything is working normally.

Guys, I'm having no luck finding a PN & Part for the F350 combination valve. . .

Anyone have any suppliers up their sleeves?
Thanks!
