I looked on Ebay & found the motorhome being parted out, but it's a 76 model. If I'm not mistaken, those were Electro-level equipped, so there won't be any knobs. If anyone hears of a good set, let me know.

While you are most likely correct (about there not being any knobs) the Electro-Level came in DURING the 1976 model year. Even though I have never seen one, I have been told that some early 1976 coaches have Power Level.

Yes, that is true. My 76, made in August 75, had power level. Mitch owns it now. I put JR Slatten Valves on it, a great improvement.

Electro level was implemented on the 1976 models with TZE serial number V100878. Prior to that all TZEs used the rotary valve Power level.

The same guy is selling the Rear Leveling Valves as well. Take a look at
those, they appear to be for the Electro-Level version. ...

I am fairly sure the Power-Level and the Electro-Level(1) use the same leveling valves. It is the EL-II that uses the electronic level sensors.

Luckily, I don't need the leveling valves at this time. All of the valves work OK, it's just that the round knobs on the dash that are worn out. I may have to improvise for the time being. I won't be using them a lot right now anyway.

Early '76 GMCs had PL II.
