sure, it will work, and if the 9 bolt has the iron calipers, they generally dont work anyway so the prop valve wont matter

I run a drum prop valve ever since dropping in my 9 bolt with the bigger brakes (12" I think). Seems to work fine.

It will work. The bias, however, is different between drum and disc, so for best brake performance, the correct valve would be the best bet (but then I'm **** in such matters).
