no you must use the proper combination valve for the disc/drum system as there is a big difference between the dirstribution valve for the drum/drum system and the combination valve(in it is a proportion valve)that is for the disc/drum system

cdowns... I think that question was askinf about a disk/disk conversion.
If that is the case, you can try it, however, I would plan on getting a manually adjusted proportioning valve so you can fine tune when the rears will lock up.
