Brown checkballs in Transgo kit?

Either will work fine. The brown ones don't absorb fluid and weigh less; should react as good or better than the steels.

The "one" brown ball is for type 1 valve bodies (1986 & earlier) and is larger in size. It installs in the bathtub slot in the valve body.

I have 2 of the larger brown ones. So it should be fine to just reuse all my steel ones correct?
