72 proportioning valve mounting - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Can someone take a picture of where the proportioning valve mounts on a 72? Or describe it for me? I am putting the master cylinder, proportioning valve, and brakes on my 68, and can't figure out how to mount the prop. valve.

Thanks

See if this helps. It's off a '72

Oh, I see -- that makes sense now! It's supposed to be crooked....

Looks like I have to get a hold of one of those junction blocks too. Now that I think about it, all the lines look different... Jeez......

Thanks for the pic!

What junction block are you referring to? If it's the one at the rear of the prop. valve, you will not need that unless you have the trailer brake hookup. This truck had that. That's the line coming off the small fitting going toward the left fender.
