Back brakes lock up to easy! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The truck has all new drums, wheel cylinders, shoes, bled properly, but if I hit the brakes kinda hard, the back wheels lock up, and the truck just keeps sliding down the road with people looking at me thinking what's up with this guy? I want to switch to front discs oneday, but if there is any kind of part that anyone knows of, I will just stick with drums for now, someone told me a proportioning valve would do the trick, has anyone else tried this?
