J,M, Great work on the rear. I've read good things about the Creepy Crawlers, how do you like them?
I like them, but they are bias ply tires so not so great for the highway. It takes a minute or two to warm them up to where you're no longer vibrating the truck, though I must admit since I keep mine at 40psi I rarely feel it. The issue is they get really hot on the highway and it eats into them. I still prefer them over my goodyears because they are wider and the sidewalls are beefy as hell. I also don't need to air down because they are so wide.
On the proportioning valve. Let me clarify what I said in my post. I felt no need to add a proportioning valve with the FZJ80 rear axle. I did however retain the factory 60 series proportioning valve that is bolted to the bottom of the master cylinder from the factory. In fact I still have it, although I don't feel it's doing too much.
Other J,
Thanks for the clarification, and just so that I'm sure we're tracking on the same thing, I'm asking what you did with that plunger looking lever that's below the cab and controls how much the brake pressure is applied to the rear but the amount of travel it does. Did you delete that or is it still on the 80, but you can't tell if it's doing much? Thanks again man.
