Re: Brake Residual Valve Location Help

Outside of ease of access I'm just wondering why one would mount the adjustable proportioning valve up that high on the firewall and run that much extra line for the rear brakes. I've got one for mine but plan to mount it inline behind the master cylinder.
I'm with Dsraven in that that setup looks like a built in brake bleeding issue.

I've fought the Ford brake switch on mine for years replacing it about once a year and am going back to the stock switch under the pedal this go around. Maybe because mine was under the truck or what not but it failed about once a year or every other year.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
