The brake distribution block and proportioning valve in my '68 cat are most likely shot (the brake warning switch is missing). I know I can get a rebuild kit and new switch (but the switch is currently out of stock at WCCC). I was also considering getting the '70+ combo block with the '67-'69 bracket. I believe I could get that plus a credit for my old dist. block and spend less than rebuilding my current 2 piece one. My question is: has anyone used one of these Frankenstein blocks on a '68 or '69? If so, did the old brake lines match up pretty close (they look like they would)? What is the overall quality of the block? ( I ask because the only reviews of these blocks I could find were on CJ Pony Parts web site and most of them were negative…but that may be a case of only the bad ones resulted in reviews.)
Your opinions/experiences are greatly appreciated.
Here is the block I’m talking about:
