with my setup my engineer asked me to keep the proprtioning valve so as you know i relocated it, and set it up to suit, i dont really think it does all the much, in mysetup as the spring seems to fall off all the time when the truck flexes,

it will all depens weather you are gunna get your truck engineered or not

ill get some pics tomorrow as i lost all mine in a recent computer crash,

as for the brake lines i got some flared joiners and some brake line from the local brake place, if its off road only there is no need why you need to fit it really, as it only alters brake pressure when load is applied in the rear

you just have to see where it plumbs back to, cause it has a feed from the master a line to the rear diff, then one back to the front, im not sure where it actually goes thou,

you could also run an adjustable valve in the cab with the re-routed lines and you could adjust it,

there is a bolt, i think its 10mm im pretty sure it adjusts the open and closing distances, like i said mine normally runs without the spring once it falls off, i only refit it when i get home,

there will be someone else with alot more info than i can provide, i thought others would have piped up by now

My valve seized years ago so I no longer have the spring on and it pulls up fine. If you aren't running it on the road just get rid of it altogether.
