RE: {Chrysler 300} Rear brake proportioning valve

["Dan Plotkin" <dplotkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I read somewhere more than once that Chrysler didn't use proportioning devices on its disk brake equipped fuselage cars because the engineers thought the weight and the wheelbase made it unnecessary. I have a disk brake conversion on my F, and while I used a residual valve I did not use a proportioning valve. I can lock the rears up first, so I should probably re-think that.
