B61 Quick Release Valve

[58GreenMackB]

Has anyone replaced the quick release valve for the rear brakes on a B61 recently?  If so, can you recommend what type of valve you used to replace the original?

We usually pull m apart n clean ..... as grit stops the flap from sealing

or if the flap is cracked we cut a new one out of a plastic icecream lid or rubber to suit

Thanks.  I was able to find a replacement for it.  It took some time, but the chart below may be helpful to someone else.  I used the 229844N for my truck, the yellow was just highlighted on the website I found this.

Nobody rebuilds parts anymore, I used to take brake cans apart and change service and emergency diaphrams.    terry

That's true! I have a truck maintenance book that belonged to my grandfather in the 50's and it has a ton of details on rebuilding components that people wouldn't even consider these days.
