JX Body

  1. Road test vehicle to determine which rear wheel indicates a premature wheel skid. Remove suspect proportioning valve from brakeline.
  2. Remove routing clips for brakelines and fuel lines from floorpan so brakelines will not be bent when installing proportioning valve with adapters back into vehicle. Remove brakelines from routing clips.
  3. Install pressure test fitting Adapter (8187) into inlet port and Adapter (8187-2) into outlet port of proportioning valve. Install proportioning valve with adapters back into vehicle.
  4. Install Pressure Gauge (C-4007-A) into each adapter. Bleed air from pressure gauges. Have an assistant hold brake pedal down until pressure on inlet side of proportioning valve is 1000 psi (70 kg/cm2 ) and note pressure on outlet side of proportioning valve. Pressure on outlet side should be 800-900 psi (56-63 kg/cm2 ) on 14" disc/drum brakes, 800-900 psi (56-63 kg/cm2 ) on 14" disc/drum brakes W/ABS and 600-700 psi (42-49 kg/cm2 ) on 14" disc/disc brakes W/ABS. Replace the proportioning valve if pressure is not within specification.
  5. Remove test equipment. Reinstall brakelines on proportioning valve. Tighten brakeline nuts to 12.5 ft. lbs. (17 N.m). Bleed brake system. See BLEEDING BRAKE SYSTEM  . Once brake system is bleed, perform pressure test on remaining proportioning valve.
