Rear Disc Brake Conversion
By: Rolf Werner and Jim Weed

"Another optional feature, but recommended, is to install and adjustable
proportioning valve in the line to the rear brakes. This will take a double
flaring tool. You can mount this valve on you inner fender. The adjustable
proportioning valve can be purchased at a Chrysler dealer. If you choose not
to install the adjustable proportioning valve you will experience rear
brakes locking up before front brakes under hard deceleration. I have found
that the larger the tire the less of a problem this becomes. Your choice!"

This also supports my theory...
