Did Summit or the instructions state why you should hook your rear brakes to the front port? That is why I ask if your truck is a 1/2 or 3/4 ton truck - rear brakes to front port is normally a C20+ thing - but the part # you shared doesn't appear to be C10 vs C20-specific, so maybe it's based on a C20+ system, which is fine - just kinda curious.

It is a C10. I believe the pushrod it correct but it just needs to be adjusted (shortened). No prop valve came with the kit. I still have the old prop/distribution block that I may hook back up just to see if it makes any difference. The instructions did not say anything regarding front and back ports but the tech said to put the back to the front and front to back. My plan is to get the rod adjusted, bleed the brakes and take it for a test drive. If needed I can swap the front and backs on the MC pretty easily.
