Do Proportioning Valves Wear Out?
Yeah I knew I would be flamed. Your opinion of my comments is not relevant to the question. You wont generate an argument with me in this members thread or anywhere else. Sorry
Hey, I'm not trying to flame you or start an argument. We've talked before on lots of different topics, many of which you've provided me with great knowledge on. So I deleted my "not relevant" comment from my earlier post.
I did assume that all of the "dancing" in the excrement comments were meant for my posts, and I do think that's kinda lame. Which may have skewed my tone a bit. :oops:
But if you look at my post in response, other than the comment I deleted, it's strictly meant to point out that while there are lots of components that should
always be replaced, the prop valve isn't one of them. Which is why I explained how I go about checking to make sure they work in the first place.
I wouldn't put info out there if I thought it was dangerous.
All of my cars have used prop valves. I've put over 40k miles on my Challenger in the last 5 years as a daily driver, and I sure as heck wouldn't drive it if I couldn't stop it, especially in California traffic. Which is why I have 11.75" rotors and 11x2.5" drums on it, why every suspension part on it has been replaced or reconditioned, why I run modern spring rates and tires, and which is why I tell everyone to upgrade their brakes/suspension/tires to the best they can afford. But if you just wholesale replace everything, including working used parts, it limits what you can afford.
