Hi guys,

It's amazing what you can find at the very, very end of the internet.   
Stephane Bergeron in France found a source for rebuild kits for the original 
Ford brake pressure reduction valve, which was used to balance the front/rear 
brake bias on the Pantera (and which, sadly, has been discarded by many 
people who simply fail to understand how or why it does what it does, thereby 
harming overall brake performance).

Here's the kit, and it's under ten bucks!

While he was at it, he found this ingenious tool which keeps the pressure 
differential switch from activating while you're bleeding the brakes:

And it's a ten-buck wonder too!

Bill--two definitely for the database!
