    getting close to plumbing brakes, 11" drums.

    Going with wilwood dual and remotes mc.

    10# residual on each outlet.

    Is there a non-proportioning valve setup you can get to split left and right side?

    i think just a dupe of the splitter found on the rear axle would work.

    Dont know what they are called, and my manual isnt available at the moment (uggg).

    One for front, one for rear.

    Thanks

    looks like it's a brake fluid distribution block.

    I have the old ones that came off of mine, but ensuring they're cleaned of rust particles, etc... as I replace everything fresh and clean... is it possible to just dunk 'em or spray with brake clean, or should I just replace as I originally thought? kind of seems like hen's teeth.

    I think the one on the front had one inlet, and three outlets (one outlet was for the pressure-brake light switch). I don't recall if the rear also had the brake-light switch (parts are in the shed, will have to go rooting for them this weekend).

    anyone have a part number? I think at one point it was called a 'T-fitting" Walcks' has a T-fitting (Willys Jeep Parts, Restoration & Wiring - Walck's 4 Wheel Drive "T" Fitting Front MB, GPW, CJ Models Up To 1959 and Rear CJ Pick Up Truck, Station Wagon, Sedan Delivery, Jeepster), which sort of mirrors what was on the rear of the D-44, except it had a tab for bolting to the cover plate.

    thoughts? ruminations?
