Brakes: Residual Pressure valves
« on: April 14, 2008 5:55 am »
how much pressure needs to be inline on my front F1 brakes and my back Ford hydraulic brakes?

I guess I'm asking which residual pressure valves to buy. It's time to install brake lines.
Oh yea, any tips on where to buy them? Thanks guys.

you will need the 2 lb (blue) for disc brakes or 10 lb (red) for drum brakes.
