I changed my rear drums to disks. In the process I discovered the steel lines at the back needed to be replaced too. I decided to let my local Fleet garage change the lines and change the master cylinder to the P30. I had ordered a brake line kit at the same time as the disk kit just in case.
Now I have noticed that they did not reverse the front and rear ports of the MC as required with the P30 MC. They re-flared the original lines and used an adapter on the rear port (I had asked them to change them only if they didn't look good). My brakes work great now so I'm wondering if this makes any difference?? After all the OEM MC was built front brakes on the rear of the MC.
The brake warning light does not come on so the proportioning valve must be happy.
What say yea?
