Thanks Doug : Im going to use one of their distribution Valves as its already set up for 4 wheel disc Vs. another application and adapt it to Mona. My valve is for disc/drum and Im told Ill get better braking overall . I was going to gut the valve I have but, Id rather be safe . They already did the math. I know how to turn a wrench ! Thanks again. Shes getting her body back on tomorrow ! Getting there. FjR68

Frank, you may be better off with an adjustable valve. Run the front brakes directly off the master, then dial in the rears with the adjustable valve.

Wilwood makes them and I'm pretty sure you can get them from Mopar Performance too.

Doug : I looked at those. They are meant to reduce psi only . If your rears lock before the fronts turn them down. My rears dont work well at all. The stock unit is actually a combo valve. There is a delay to the front wheel high psi to give the rears a head start. So its supposed to stop flatter , not nose down. Im gonna try a stock one, they seam to work well. Im also going with a 93 YJ booster and master, never had assisted brakes. That could be the ticket ! Who said IM getting old ? FjR68
