Distribution block necessary?
Should I even use the Distribution block for the brake lines? I've got 4-wheel Disc brakes with a proportioning valve and I'm getting ready to run new brake lines because none of the stock lines form Classic tube line up. Not their fault, it's because of the narrowed rear end and suspension changes.

If youve got a proportioning valve inline for your rears I dont see the need for the distribution block.

I'm no expert, so I spoke with Year One and Inline Tube regarding this same issue for my car. For what it's worth, both suggested keeping the block.

I spoke to Paul about this when I was ordering my Hydro boost. He said the since I had a master cylinder that was set up for disc/disc. You really dont need the distribution block on the frame. HE DID recommend that I plumb in a proprtioning valve into the rear feed line so I could adjust the rear brakes if needed.
