[quote][i]Originally posted by Steve[/i] Been reading a bit into this, clearly its a complicated affair setting up a proper rear bias, and ideally should be done with measuring equipment. To add to the complications my stock master cylinder has the bias done courtesy of the master cylinder, quote from TIS [quote]Vehicles fitted with the standard braking system have pressure conscious reducing valves (PCRVs) fitted in the master cylinder outlet ports. The PCRVs control the hydraulic pressure applied to the rear brakes reducing the risk of rear wheel lock-up under braking.[/quote] Reading this article http://www.stoptech.com/tech_info/wp_proportioning_valves.shtml Suggests that sticking a proportioning inline with a stock bias system already in place is a big no no and can produce unpredictable results, tbh this was my thoughts anyway. Also it points out that putting better brakes on the front will increase front bias and removing weight out the back increases rear bias. Taking into account it also advises where possible to just leave the stock system as is, is it worth just leaving it judging by iv altered biases front and rear and potentially have just evened each other out? If i do stick a rear bias valve in, is there an easier way to get it roughly right? PS 3rd party tandem master cylinder not an option at the moment, thats a plan for the future so no suggestions about that please [/quote]
