Brake Equlizer Needed
« on: March 12, 2006, 09:37:56 AM »
first off i am running a Cb performance front disk brake kit and type 3 rear drums.
i am just getting around to start finishing the braking system and have heard of people having to put a pressure equlizer in.
i don't even know if i am calling it the right thing.something that will control how much brake pressure goes to the front or the back.
is this needed with the set-up i'm running or will i be fine with out it
thanks for any help

Russ if you are doing that I would really suggest you try and run the widest front tires possible. That way you can maximize the most of your grip.
If more power is better. Then too much is just enough.
Why do it once when you can do it thrice?

You don't need a proportioning valve, you don't need residual pressure valves, or any other pressure altering device.
