On the old flxible transit coaches with the 8V/71&V-730 transmission.
The V-730 transmission has a small Firestone air bellows for the support for the end of the V-730 transmission.
It also has a small air pressure regulator to control the coach air pressure down to around 60 psi? To inflate the above bellows.
By any chance does any one have a Flxible parts book that might list the proper part number and correct name of the regulator?
Would you be so kind to post the information on the board.
Thanks

Most of those were replaced with a stock solid rubber mount. It should be the same on most transits that have the V730 in them. The bar it's hooked to is called the transmission support strut or ( bar ) and really doesn't carry much loading..
Check with the RTS guys, someone should have one laying around and they are fairly cheap too... |

You could probably get one from NIMCO...talk to Nick. If they have a flex or RTS that uses one, he could probably sell the brace, air bag, and pressure reg cheaper than a bag would cost. |

The folks at Muncie found the Flxible part number and they had the valve in stock.
