I had quite a time with my brakes after putting a disc axle conversion on the front. I originally took the spring and rubber check out of the RPV on the front pot. It braked fine with no rear lockup. The brakes were a bit touchy but braked fine. Then the master went out. So I decided to do it with the correct disc/drum master and dist block/prop valve. I tried every combination and could not stop the rears from locking. I did not want to go with an adjustable, so I bought a new dual pot drum drum master and removed the check from the front RPV. Again I had great brakes no rear wheel lock, just a good old fashion four wheel lockup.

Now, I put a 225lb winch on the nose, guess what, I get a rear wheel lock under heavy braking again. What a pisser! I guess it was never that close to correct if it's that finicky!

Now I'm seriously considering hydro boost before I take anymore stabs at it. It really bugs me, the whole rear wheel lock up thing! And, we should be able to correct without adjustable props. That's what I'm thinking anyway.
