Brake Line and Prop Valve Plumbing
Have finished the rotors and caliphers on my 69 C-10 P/U truck upgrade.
Have installed a disc brake M/C and a proportioning valve. Below is a pix of the valve. It shows 2 ports for the front and a large one for the rear. Do I need to run 2 lines to the front(one for left and one for right)? The dealer said some people plug one of the front ports and run the front disc brakes off the one remaining port. Has anybody actually used this particular this prop valve before? Did you run 2 separate line on the front or just one? Jim |

Re: Brake Line and Prop Valve Plumbing
I mounted my prop valve in the frame and ran 2 seperate lines for the front.

Re: Brake Line and Prop Valve Plumbing
I just did my brake lines last weekend and added the front disc on my 68 and used the same valve.
I ran the 2 front lines one from each port on the valve. I have seen where some have blocked off one port and used a spliter to both fronts but i'd rather have 2 off the valve. Haven't got to try them out as i'm still in final stage of build but should be ready to go by spring. |
