Pedal Valve Number

[nicklepickle]

I'm having some trouble tracking down a part. It's a duel foot valve for the air brakes. The number on the valve itself is

T-239649-C but it has no indication of the manufacturer. The truck is a '74 MB400. Is there a field repair or rebuild kit for these things?

Thanks

Probably an E series of Bendix valve. Mark all lines, pull it off, and exchange it at the truck parts store. You're talking safety here and it is not to be compromised by trying to repair it yourself, however simple it may seem. You won't spend a hundred bucks on a replacement.

The parts vendor will know by looking at it instantly.

That treadle valve is most likely a Bendix E-6 style.

It would be prior to anti-lock plumbing I think.

Rob is right - don't monkey around, take out the original,

get it to someone who knows and exchange it for

a fresh one.

You can usually find these valves on E-Bay at pretty

reduced prices - just be certain you know what you need

and what you are buying.
