'87 S10 2wl Brake Combination Valve Sign In

I need to locate a new combination valve GM#14041636 or Delco#172-2215.
I have replaced this valve twice before due to leakage of brake fluid over the 290K miles.
I am told by the Parts Manager at a GM dealership that this part is no longer available and manufactured. This valve is not serviceable.
The after market stores and Napa do not carry it, nor does Delco have it.
I tried the net but no luck.
The dismantle yard I see as my only option, and then that used part may be bad or will be eventually.
Does any one have any sugguestions?
"For want of a shoe a horse was lost, ect. ect."
For want of a valve a S10 was scraped!

You should have just rebuilt it with new cups and such.

Just googled around to find one and found many options for replacing these if not new from GM. Good grief - these things are not usually a problem in the whole general vintage and even older in my experience.

I'll just plain give you a phone # to finish the search for new if you want. They are local to me and once said they would ship. Web sales isn't their thing so plain ask.

If they don't know just where one is or can get one to ship I'd be shocked!

Thanks Jim N and Tom Greenleaf for the tel.#s.
Took a good look at my proportioning/combination valve after cleaning it and the area around it.
This time the leak seems to be occurring between the brass block body and a brass coupling that screws into the body. There is a internal view of the valve in the Helm shop manual and it looks like an O ring pictured to seal brass coupling to valve body. Rear brake line flare nut screws into brass coupling. I am planning to search local dismantlers for valve and check to see if I can service O ring before taking mine out of truck as truck is my only transportation.
