[QUOTE="Steve Flame, post: 438812, member: 21107"] Hello! Master cylinders between disc and drum are different. The 4 wheel disk setups have equal size reservoirs- and no check valves for the rear. The proportioning valve is the same for both setups according to part number. We used to just pull the check valve out of the master cylinder to keep the brakes from dragging. My 94 has a stock master cylinder, I am assuming the check valve was removed because the brakes don't drag- I did not install it. You have to watch your fluid level closely if you use the smaller drum brake reservoir. However! This should not affect the peddle as in loose or spongy. I found a video: [MEDIA=youtube]3XK0XZCls4I[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
