Just put a Dana60 in with eldorado calipers Dutchman 35 spline shafts late 80 Kia rotors wondering about the stock proportion valve should I. Remove go adjustable or modify stock any info greatly appreciated want to do one & right
 
I do not honestly know as i ran all new 3/16 brake lines and used the fittings that came with the valve.
I have a funny feeling the stock rear line is a bigger diameter than the front ones though so not sure if it has a 3/8-24 fitting it may well be larger.

Are the fittings same as stock I just put new stainless lines in a year ago

If they're not, cut off the old and put on the correct and re-flare. Worth the trouble to not have adapters, etc.
I did the speedway GM metric caliper brackets on my AMC20. I added power brakes and gutted my proportioning valve and it stops very nice in any given situation. I used a 1/4 turn valve in the rear brake circuit for my holding brake and it works even better than expected.
