I am redoing all the rear brakes on my '93 XJ and want to replace the little brass block that is on top of the rear axle but can't find it on the Pep Boys website.

On a mits Mirage I once had, it was a t valve called the brake proportioning valve. So this is a brake proportioning block? Brake distribution....?
