I'm very safety conscious about things like brakes and steering so I paid a hotrod shop to weld in my IFS and plumb the brakes. They put in a dual master cylinder and the 2lb and 10 lb check valves,

I am running the proportional valve and believe the residual check valves setup will be fine. You would only need to install an adjustable valve on the rear if they lock up sooner that the front, you

I see you point Jim and you are correct. The residual check valves are just to keep some pressure in the lines and the proportioning valve applies the correct amount of pressure to the front and back
