Re: Bleeding brakes with wilwood prop valve?

That is what I am reading into it, bleed the brakes with it wide open and then go out where you have lots of room (big open parking lot) and do your test braking and adjusting. You never want the rear brakes to lock up on a pickup or you will be going round and round. My 71 GMC is a prime example of that, the rear brakes lock up and the rear end comes around in a hard stop.

My ongoing truck projects:
48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
