I would like to see your proportioning valve. I just finished installing 9" disk brake rearend and have to install proportioning valve also. Also how did you hookup emergency brake cable? Thanks

i am using the regular proportioning valve from an 82 1/2 ton because i did the 73-87 front suspension swap.

What info do you have about the rear brakes? Was it a kit? What parts? How was the install?

Thanks

I'm also wondering about this setup.

Does it work better?

79 lincoln mark V rear end. you have to weld new saddles on the rear end, use an adjustable panhard rod (from early classic), shorten driveline, new brake hoses (i chose braided stainless, earl's) mid 70's corvette master cylinder, 3/4 ton booster.
