I don't have a proportioning valve on the 55 and instead of putting it in the car I remember seeing someone with a cable adjuster. Maybe it was Mitch. I need a brand. I can't find one.

Willwood and long acre make a cable adjustable for in car adjustment if your valve is under the hood and not in arms reach. There is one on Wayne and Randy's car.

Jj- since neither of us have a brake prop valve I think that is what is keeping us from being a trophy girl!!! Either that or they are cheating.

I agree. How bout a link to the one on Smiley's/ Is it the same one that does the brake bias bars?


All I can find is bias bar adjusters.

That may work but it's really for brake bias bars.

So you need a valve like below? Some mount that near the driver to adjust and run the lines in the car. Otherwise you can't adjust it in the car unless you can the cable attachment.

Yes, you need that valve (or one threaded exactly the same) to work with the Wilwood remote bias knob. I have this setup on my car. In retrospect, it would have been simpler to just mount the valve inside the car but I already had an underhood valve from a long time ago. Saw the remote adjuster on Randy's car and ordered one but the thread pitch was different than my valve (SSBC brand). Path of least resistance was to replace it with the Wilwood valve which worked out fine. The cable is plenty long enough to mount the adjustment knob on the A pillar or the dash below it. It is not long enough to make it to the center dash (on my car at least) and they don't sell a longer cable. Just FYI.
