It's a metal thingy on the inner fender (wheel well), close to the brake master cilinder. You should be able to follow the brakelines from the master cilinder to the valve.

you can see it in the middle of the pic, where the 2 brakelines from the master run into!

Thanks Ivan, I have had a look and the rear brake pipe goes straight from the master cylinder to the rear brakes and the front brake pipe goes from the master cylinder into a 'T' piece and then on to the front brakes. I guess the valve should be in the rear brake line ?

Ok definately not there then Huh I have seen that thing in a box of spares I got with the car though Smile Good thing I fitted a bias valve in line to the rear brakes. I could still use some more rear bias though (rally car) any ideas other than an adjustable pedal box ?

i don't need this setup, so you can have the valve from me if you want?

don't know if there are any moving parts in there, because it's in my shed for at least 4 years allready Tongue

What? No proportioning valve? I guess you'd still have stoppers. Maybe? I dunno. Soak that rusty thing in WD40 for a week and then spray air through it; good-as-gnu!
