For Sale: Used Brake Valve Parts

I have a limited supply of used brake valve parts (things like metal bodies, nuts, metal washers, pistons, electrical terminals, etc.) that are available for sale. These come from the valves and switches I've bought for disassembly purposes. I can't list all of the individual pieces, but if you're looking for something I might be able to help. Just use the contact form on this web site to describe what you're looking for and I'll see if I have what you need.

WANTED! Volunteer to Test a Jeep Combination Valve Rebuild Kit!

I've recently come up with what I think could be a viable rebuild kit for the Weatherhead SF-5355378 combination brake valve used on Jeep CJ-5s and CJ-7s during the 1970s. I can't test the kit myself, though, so I'm looking for someone who can use the kit to rebuild a valve and confirm that everything works without leaking. I'll provide the kit for free to the first person that's able to help. I'd like to work it like this to provide an incentive for responsiveness:

In Progress: Search Products by Year, Make, and Model

I'm in the process of categorizing all vehicle products by year, make, and (optionally) model to help make it easier to find what you're looking for. For now, if you don't see something, it's probably because I just haven't tagged that particular product. In the meantime, you can still use the "Search Products" free-form text search and the "Search Products by Type" menu to find products. If you're not sure, just ask.

Site Software Update on 21 September, 2019

The software used to power this web site was updated on September 21, 2019. The update included migration of all content, users, and order information from the old site, so hopefully everything will continue to work as it has before. I've tried to improve the way search works, and I've added menus that help you find parts organized by manufacturer. Please contact us if you run into any issues and I'll do my best to fix things as quickly as I can.
