Reply to "Pantera Brakes revisited"

Simon, yes, if the rear brakes are upgraded, removing the valve is a must. I wouldn’t assume the valve is frozen. The key once the valve is removed is to test the brakes for balance in a safe place. You want to see where the front brakes lock compared to when the rear brakes lock. It is important to perform this check and obviously in a safe place. You want the fronts to lock first. If you have really good upgraded rear brakes and a functional p-valve still in the front system, it is possible that the rear’s could outperform the front’s. This would be bad and could lead to a spin during a panic stop.
