Default 8.25 brake distribution lock/vent..

I am planning on installing my new to me 8.25 over the Labor Day holiday week (on vacation)! I am missing the vent bolt that holds the block to the axle. I have searched and have come up with no name or part number. What is the bolt/vent called and where can I get it? I want to get what I need so I can get this done and make my impatient life easy! Thanks to all

I just posted something similar in Ask A Question. My donor 8.25 came with just the hard lines, no block, no bolt... nada. I don't even know the name for it lol.

Whatever, guy can only check one thread at a time lol. :P I thought that was the front brake hose anyway.

At any rate I did find this pic that demonstrates the hookup. I must've thought that the vent bolt thing was where the brake hose connected.



#3, the strange vent screw, is P/N 52067508. Factorychryslerparts.com has em for $3.60

JY pickins for 8.25s are seriously rare here.

Fairly sure the d35 vent bolt thing is the same, they are a ***** to find. As for the block, if you get new brake lines (RE stainless steel braided or similar or even stock) the rear one comes with the block.

Thanks salad. I appreciate the part number and web site. I will check them out and get one order ASAP! I have a new braided extended brake line so all I need is the bolt/vent to have all the parts needed for the install. I would hate to be held up over a small part.. Thanks again..

Well, just tried to place my order..Notice I said tried? $2.81 for the part, $13.91 to ship it and then they said that I didn't meet the $10 minimum purchase! So for a $2.81 part, the grand total was going to be $16 and some change and they tell me that I haven't met the minimum purchase! WTF??

I am dropping my Cummins off Monday for it's yearly service so I will check with the Mopar parts guru and see what they come up with.
