My 1994 Toyota pick up just blew a brake line ( original) and damn near all of it is rusted out . Putting new rotors and pads on front , new drums on back, running new lines and I think I’m going to use the wilwood brake proportioning valve with inverted flare female and bubble flare male instead of spending 2-300$ on a new load sensing proportioning assembly. Hoping all goes well 🤣
Thank you. 🙏 I actually swapped the entire rear axle from a 2014 Tundra, and they come from the factory with discs in the rear. I’m probably going make a quick video on the ins and outs of the axle swap, since a number of folks have asked.
Couple questions: Which Wilwood valve did you use? The one with the 10-1mm bubble flare inlets or another one? Does your Tundra have bubble flares on the brake lines? Most people mount their Wilwood Adjustable Valves under the hood...how does your hold up to water and dirt? I am thinking about mounting mine under the truck, where the old LSPV was located. as well.
I used the valve with M10x1 bubble flare fittings.. My tundra has inverted flares on the brake lines, so I had to run adapters; I put them in the description. No issues with putting the valve in the stock location. I prefer it, as I only adjust it when im towing something particularly heavy, and I can just reach under and turn it when im hooking up the trailer.
I made a template out of cardboard of the shape I wanted, then cut and drilled a piece of 16g steel sheet. Used the stock bolts to mount it to the chassis, and some through bolts and nuts to bolt on the PV.
It's a rear proportioning valve, so it controls how much pressure goes to the rear brakes. It does not "take away" any pressure from the front brakes, it only controls the fluid volume to the rear. You never want your rear brakes locking up before the front, as it can create loss of control. When towing or hauling heavy loads, the amount of weight on the front and rear tires changes, which changes when the front and rear brakes lock up. This valve just allows you to adjust for different loads, so you can continue to prevent the rear brakes from locking up before the fronts.
Sorry man my question was why did you change the rear axle on that Tundra The first GEN Tundra and the second GEN and third GEN and fortune are the same axle
@@raulbueno4284 Oh man, definitely not the same. 1st Gen has a 8.4" ring gear, 7/8" diameter, 29 spline axles, and drum brakes. 2nd Gen has a 10.5" ring gear, 1 3/4" diameter, 36 spline axles, and disc brakes. The 2nd gen axle is WAY beefier, essentially a 1 ton axle.
Look man I have a 2005 Toyota tundra with a 4.7 iPhone is weird Maxwell package It has a 10 1/2 inch ringer with a 430 rear end from factory do you know the address on the tundra come up for a 10 and a second GEN and a third GEN and a fortune Tundra’s are the same exactly from Hino That’s a semi from Toyota matter factory Yasmin there are the same I’ve been a mechanic for five years and I have three tundras and they pull the same weight and I’ll pull it with a gooseneck trailer
Let me ask you why the First GEN Toyota Tundra I am a second GEN and a third GEN and the fourth GEN are over bill tracks because they put the same parts in the same stuff on the same trucks follow me as you did you ever knew the first GEN tundras for over built can you the truck was capable as a 1 ton that’s why they put the same same parts as the first GEN two the second GEN and third GEN and fourth GEN they knew they were doing The right parts for that truck man I’ve been towing for 10 years I know what I’m talking about man I’ve been at Toyota guy from 2000
@@JHBtheIVI just did this same procedure on my 2003 Toyota Tacoma and I pretty much followed your video to a T. I am 100% not blaming you for anything I have done on my truck, but after I did this I also bled the brakes. When I was pumping the brakes for the last caliper the pressure on my brakes gave out and they do not work. I thought maybe I installed the valve wrong but other than the in and out lines being a little lose before I tighten them after my brakes gave out I have no idea what may have caused this. My master cylinder is full of brake fluid but my emergency brake light is on. Any advice or help is much obliged
@@Thelegend-fm4rz Thats no fun! If they gave out all of a sudden, something probably let loose. If you don’t see fluid coming from any of the lines, I’d check inside your rear drums, and also check to make sure the MC isn’t leaking into the brake booster. Both these are common issues on these old trucks.
Wilwood 260-12627 is the valve I used, but you will need to make sure you get the one with the proper inlet/outlet for your fittings, and use flare adapters if necessary. I would imagine your toyota uses the same size fittings, but you will need to confirm.

Sounds like a fun weekend! Yeah, LSPV is a nice system when it works, but definitely not worth replacing when it goes IMO.
Awesome video helped me a lot 🙌🏻🙌🏻
@@boots2488 Excellent. Just make sure you use the correct flare adapters if necessary. I forgot them in my video, but added them to the description.
@@JHBtheIV will do!!!
Hey could you share the rear disc brake upgrade you did? I love my 2001 tundra and need to upgrade bad. I love your vids!!
Thank you. 🙏

Ok so i have the exact same valve on my 89 fj but after a while it stopped working and intermittently would block off all flow to the rear brakes
Never seen that, but it sounds like something broke inside the valve. Id contact Willwood.

@@JHBtheIV Great! Thanks for responding!
@@williamdejeffrio9701 You're welcome. 👍
can you please tell me how you made that mounting bracket step by step please thank you and where did you get the material
I made a template out of cardboard of the shape I wanted, then cut and drilled a piece of 16g steel sheet. Used the stock bolts to mount it to the chassis, and some through bolts and nuts to bolt on the PV.
How does this work when its the front brakes that get more pressure wouldn't you want it up front under the hood for the front brakes

Why did you change the axle axles same thing as a second GEN axles
Sorry, I don't understand your question?

On my Tacoma I connect the line that runs to the axle to the out of the willwood bypass
Yep, that’s what I did as well.
@@JHBtheIV did u have to bubble flare the line
@@JHBtheIV mines is leaking when i press the breaks
You have to make sure you get the wilwood valve with the correct fittings for your brake line set up. They make a couple different options.
Why not in cab adjustability
Link to ebay is broken. Mind replacing it? Thank you!

Great video! By chance how many adaptors did you need?
Thank you! 🙏
2 adaptors; 1 for line in, and one for line out on the proportioning valve.
Does this valve still work if the rear brakes are drum brakes?
Yes it does. The valve proportions the fluid going to the front and back wheels, so the type of brake at the wheel is a non-factor.

@@Thelegend-fm4rz One other thing, you installed the line adapters for the new LSPV correct?
@JHBtheIV No, I bought a valve that fit my brake line so I wouldn’t have to buy adapters (M10 x 1.0)
Did you use adapters I cannot find the right ones
Yes I did. Check the video description.
Great video again man, love to hear a update after a while on this.
Will do. Need to fix a steering issue, but I should have it drivable soon.
UPDATE for you. Everything is still working as it should. I have had no issues.
@@JHBtheIV awesome man thanks for the update! I plan on doing this in the spring to mine
Great Video and Great editing
Do you have a link to the adapters?
