That will never happen. I like mine the way it rolled off the dealer's lot.

So as you can tell from the above conversation, I am looking at swapping a dual reservoir master cylinder on to my '66 F250 4X4. It has drum brakes all around.

I need a proportioning valve off of a '67 to '75 F250 4X4. Napa can't get one. I can't find a NOS one either.

NumberDummy?

Yeah, I just went looking for a proportioning valve for a truck that has power brakes (collecting my parts for a power brake upgrade).

I am mainly posting so that if I find a source, it's easy to update so I can fill in. I am sure Numberdummy will beat me though...

Do they even exist? Or are they just a conspiracy?

Both obsolete, no Ford Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has either one.

1972 Redneck,
How did that prop valve from Wild Horses work out for you? Do you, or does anyone else, know if that would work on a 2WD 1970 F250 with four wheel drums?

Thanks,
Matt

I actually got a '74 F250 4X4 for parts. I just pulled the parts off of it.
