4th gen Proportioning valve
I'm about to start a 4th gen disc rear swap. I currently have drum breaks and I'm wondering how important it is to swap an ajustable pro valve or a 4th gen pro valve in. I heard it was necessary but I wanted second opinions because it seemed like it would be impotrtant for the brakes to receive the correct amount of pressure.

Re: 4th gen Proportioning valve
Thanks for the help man. I take it the 1LE is the best valve to use even if they aren't 1LE brakes? or are all 4th gens 1LE?
