Lets take a minute and move into a few things that are going on now with the truck..
As some of you my or may not know I put a hand brake in my truck.
The system was tied into the factory back brake lines.
Unfortunately this didn't work. Because of the lack in heavy bias in the preportioning valve there was to much influence on the front calipers.
The work around would have taken away from Fords active handling system. This is something I did not want to do..Remember the goal in this truck is to always add (improve) to what Ford did and never remove..
So the solution was to build an independent braking system..
Enter the new (still in testing) G&P rear brake bracket..
This bracket will allow me to hang a second caliper on the rear end and plume it with it's own hydraulic system.
The only modifications to the truck as far as Ford parts go is the trimming of the splash plate..
Everything else is based around factory Ford parts.. The second calipers are Ford along with all the retention hardware.
I just have to finish up the pluming and then start evaluation testing..
Thats when the ABS work around will start.
