if you have stock brakes on the rear you maybe able to get away with it. try it and go around the block and give'um a good shot. if the rears lock up and the fronts get going  :yikes:  that's not a good thing. just think if it where rainning! :sheerterror:

butt what do you have to lose by trying? If it's not right just put a new one in.  :_order:
A good day working, that's just sick :reg:

I was asking about removing the lspv and just bypassing it w/o putting in a manual valve
