I'm currently in the process of researching how to do a rear disk brake swap on my 1996 K1500 4x4.
My question is with regards to how proportioning is achieved on these newer trucks. On my old K25 there is a separate prop valve bolted to the front cross member, but my 96 doesn't have one like that. Does the ABS module do the proportioning internally, or is it done entirely with the master cylinder?
If I'm fortunate and the proportioning is done with the master, then this swap will be super easy as I've found that a master cylinder from a 2000 Chevy with a disk / disk combo is a direct bolt up to the 96's booster. Both use the same throw length, have the same diameter mating surface, and the same bolt pattern.
Thanks guys!
