help with brake line on 70 burb
 
Long story short, I switched to disc brakes off of a 87 truck. I got the lines prop valve all the way to the master cylinder, bought a new master cylinder for a 72 to go to my original power booster. It stops good great pedal but if I push a bit too hard the rear tires lock up, it is kinda dangerous when wet.

I think I may have the lines going into the master cylinder in the wrong holes.
Can somebody take a look at their 71-72 and see if the front resevior goes to the front brakes or rear?

front (smaller) reservoir goes to the rear brakes.

sounds like you may need an adjustable proportioning valve to prevent rear brake lockup.
