Hi all,
Having a hard time finding a 3/8" x 1/2" fine thread hex bolt to plug the switch hole in my brake pressure differential switch. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Is there a metric equivalent?

Thanks
Rick

I don't know your reasoning, but, just think what your saying! You want to disregard the brake pressure SAFETY switch! You can buy a replacement switch from another car, it doesn't have to be an MGB switch, only difference might be the wire connector After removing that safety device, how will you know if the shuttle moves to one end and shuts off pressure to the front or rear brakes due to a blown line? Here's a photo of a shuttle valve from a Ford and how it works, almost identical to the MGB. I would never remove this and disregard the system. JMHO. PJ
