It is made by Bendix Corp.Does anyone know of a rebuild kit or possibly a rebuilt unit.Also does the unit on the axle have a rubber diaphram or leather and can these be rebuilt .
Thanks

I do know that I called two places and they said they do not have kits. I have not yet tried Jim Carter Truck parts as I am not ready yet. but, If you find a kit for both please let me know.
Do keep in mind that the Chevrolet and GMC valves seem to be diffrent. I have a GMC and it is missing the correct set up on the fire wall. So, If someone has a complete unit let me know. It is possible that the unit I have is wrong. I do know that the way the GMC mounts compared to the Chevrolet design is Diffrent.
