Proportioning Valve/ Residual Valve
« on: Dec 10, 2011, 09:14:05 PM »
Looking to see if anyone has anything before I buy new. I'm going to rear disks and am looking for an adjustable proportioning valve so I can adjust the brake bias (like a wilwood or summit). Would also be interested in a 10 lb residual valve if anyone has one.

Located in Monterey Bay/ San Luis Obispo area. Pm or post up.

Thanks

That's the plan, I just wanted to see if anyone had one. Maybe I could save a few bucks.

Thanks for the info. I saw on pirate that a few people needed it, but I don't know if they were running an adjustable prop valve or not. I'll hold off then.

Anyone have a prop valve they aren't using  :greengrin:

Honestly you don't need either of them if you run a fj80 master cylinder. Mine work great :twocents:

I have an fj80 master that I plan to run. Did you run it on the street or only on the trail?

Drove it on the street for years before i turned it into a buggy. No issues at all

Just make sure you bench bleed that cylinder before installing it and it should work great

Thanks for the info. Were you using solid axle rotors and calipers or something else?

I plan to bench bleed it, I've heard it turns into a pain to get all the air out if you don't.

Thanks again for the info. I think I'm going to just run the fj80 master and see how it is. If I need the adjustable prop valve I can get one later.
