none of my local parts stores could get one, and showed no stock at their hubs...luckily i have a O'reilly's parts store over in the next town that showed 2 on hand at their nashville store...So they had one sent to this store at 7am this morning...

I now have working brake system woohoo :grin:
 
i just put one of those from oriellys on my 70 , took some doing but it works great

yeah, it's pretty tight under the dash lol....though i would have been easier if i removed the steering column...but i didn't want to mess with that....
 
Also, this d250 van graciously donated it's proportioning valve so the roadrunner could live on :D

firewall and holes in the plate were totally different for a 70 and i had to massage the inner fender with a sledge hammer too . :grin::grin::grin:

damn :laughing6:

I didn't need a sledge hammer thank god, but i did have to drill one the brake pedal bracket holes a tiny bit bigger so the stud would go through, i could not get that thing to line up for the life of me...you need 8 arms/hands to get that bracket to cooperate...:cwm10:
