You might have to take it out and Bring it to a place that sells medium duty and class 8 truck parts. They could probably match it up to a suitable replacement. Treadle valve is the name of the valve your looking for

There is probably a tag on it with a bendix part # on it. If you get that # a place like Truck Pro or some other heavy truck place should be able to help you.

Is it part 2A270, "Valve assy (brake air foot control)"

Right side, 14 down.

I find it referenced in a Bendix parts PDF that won't load for some reason.

Also here:

Pricey little devil, maybe you could just rig up a couple of gate valves from Home Depot.....

But wait, here's one with a picture, maybe this is the one:

Based on the parts catalog description, I believe you are correct.

LN applications are at the bottom of the page.

All I've been able to find is the D2HZ-2A270-A .. Repair Kit =

MILLER OBSOLETE PARTS in Binghamton NY has ONE = 607-722-5371.

PARTS INTERNATIONAL in Farmers Branch TX has ONE = 888-727-0418.
