ccsb teaser and brake question
Well, I tore into the truck tonight to get it ready for the cut on saturday. Here is the stuff I pulled, the incision area, and what is that thing in the last pic? It looks to be some kind of valve that changes the braking as the suspension moves. Enjoy!

Re: ccsb teaser and brake question
Rear brake proportioning and shut-off valve. If you brake hard enough with an empty bed, it is supposed to keep the rear wheels from locking up if the cab nosedives. Good idea, I don't know if it really would decrease the stopping distance, but it would let you concentrate on a panic stop without the screaming tires skidding across the pavement.

Re: ccsb teaser and brake question
What method are you going to use to shorten the frame? I'm trying to keep up with your build.

Re: ccsb teaser and brake question
like this, then plate the inside. Should I do bolts too? Is the brake proportioning valve stock? Can I/Should I get rid of it?
