I've seen a few posts that mention replacing the proportioning valve for the rear brakes with a "tee".
1. Is it safe? 2. Is it street legal? 3. Is it useful if I'm retaining the stock brakes? 4. What is involved besides simply replacing the valve with the tee? Thanks, Ben |

I just put a vw T in place of the rear prop valve and the hardest part was getting the old prop valve out...puttin the T in was no problem at all, the lines are easy to get into place.
I also put a adj prop valve in the passenger compartment right in front of the firewall...that was more of a pain...as I had to cut and reflare the lines. It would have been easy if I had more than 6 square inches of work space...anyway, I would not recommend putting it in this location unless you like to cut and bang a good bit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) however, it will be fun to play with the brake bias at the first autox (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) - Tony |
