  • Brakes: Brake booster check valve source?

    I am spending a lot of money on the brake system for my 63 Lark with front disc brakes, including the purchase of a rebuilt brake booster. I am hoping to find a less expensive check valve (1559721) than what I see advertised at $75. Any ideas?

    Have you asked at your Friendly Local NAPA Auto Parts Store, or showed them one to match up?

          Hmm, I am seeing the 1559721 for the same price for '63 Larks with Disc.

          But my point was, since you are looking for a lower price, and most Studebaker Vendors have similar or the same source, that means they are basically "Fair Traded" and within pennies THE SAME.

          So unless someone has a used or maybe New one gathering dust in their Garage they don't need, your best bet is STILL elsewhere.

            Do you think that this might work?

              Fusick Automotive, really?
              What's he doing with New Studebaker Parts with 22 sold, more than 10 available? . .

              Obviously it fits other makes & Oldsmobiles that he mostly sells these for, but sure looks like it could work!

                I have two of these and they are identical to the original check valve.

                        Thanks 64V-K7. That NAPA part doesn't look right to me.

                        I bought the one on ebay and it arrived today. As Bob Langer cited, it is an exact match to the original so pretty happy with that purchase.
