Re: Gutted combo valve

You could but the rear brakes would lock up before the fronts. Or. Install an adjustable valve in the rear circuit. You can bypass the rear of the distribution block completely but the brake warning light will stay on as it'll think the circuit has failed. You could T off the input to the distribution block and plug the rear outlet. Put the adjustable valve in the rear circuit. It's a great addition to the brake system.
