New brakes, soft pedal, distribution blocks ?

Those are switches so if you loose pressure in the front or rear it turns the brake light on, the proportioning valve is another part and I don't think a 4 wheel drum system had them. you should use a adjustable proportioning valve so the rears don't lock up on hard stops.

From what I know the stock distribution block for 4 wheel drums will work on 4 wheel discs. That's per Cass, no proportioning valve needed. I do have good fluid at all 4 corners just the pedal sucks. Just didn't know if the 2 blocks I have are anyway different, since they are different shapes. Here is the 68 one.
