Fittings to bypass proportioning valve

15 years ago I did this to my 91 and found the thread with the fittings you need. Now I want to do it to my other 91 and I can't believe the fittings you need aren't stickied and I am missing it doing a

Hopefully this time everything is plug and play and there's no cutting and reflaring like last time??

Anyway I want to T the front of course. Actually on the rear I just want to connect the ends together with no proportioning valve at all. After spending money using one last time I've ended up just running it wide open for 15 years anyway.

So what size threads are everything and what adapters can I buy locally?

You want to make a single circuit brake system?

Re: Fittings to bypass proportioning valve

If this is going to end in you telling me not to do it because you think the rear brakes will lock up first I prefer you just give me the fittings I need instead so I can T the front brakes and connect the rear brake lines together. Thanks

Ran it that way for 15 years prior to this post just fine.
This time I'll not waste money on a prop valve until after I encounter that problem, not prior.
