    Plumb a ball valve into your brake line. It'll do the same job. :D

    that's just a valve to lock your rear brakes with the hydraulic system. parking brakes should be all mechanical , independent and not rely your primary braking system

    if it was my car i would go to a junkyard and find the missing parts. what rear end?
