Now can you help me with the proportioning valve and the rear hose to connect the 71 rear end?
You need an inverted flare adapter to connect the brake line to the valve at the rear. I searched every fastener store around and NONE had the correct one. I purchased a set of three that cpp sells and the 9/16-18 was the one I needed. Here is a pic of the adapter on my truck. I also had to bend the oem hard line but that was easy to do even by hand.
