Afternoon all,finally got to replacing front drum brakes to disc,got a kit from chocostang,honestly pedal doesn’t feel much different,but I know it’s better,my question is:the proportioning valve has a dial to increase/decrease,didn’t expect that,how do I determine if it needs to be increased/decreased?i went on line and they sell disc/drum proportioning valves that don’t have a dial,would it be worth the 50.00 to get one without the dial?as always thanks for any help or suggestions you can send my way
As I recall, the Chockostang instructions say to count how many turns from one direction to the other, and set it halfway in between as a starting point. You can confirm that by calling or emailing them; they always respond.
Is that what you have BB?iguess my biggest concern is how do you know if there is an issue?can the brakes lock up?ill call Chocko stang tomorrow
Yes, and I'm sure they sent you the same one. It works fine, no worries; I've set slightly to the front bias (meaning rear 'decrease') after the halfway point. Here's mine:
