How long before you replace the combination valve, again? What grade lining did you install on the rear axle?
Hi Ronno6:The reason your rears do not lock up when going in reverse is purely a weight transfer issue...all that weight from the front of the truck is being transferred to the rear brakes and so they cannot lock up as easily because of this extra weight force resisting the braking force that is applied to the rear brake circuit...even if the CV is allowing too much pressure to the rear circuit. My speculation is that your rears are locking up during forward travel braking because the rear is so light there is no weight opposing force to counteract a rear brake circuit that is applying too much pressure because the CV is not working right to modulate the rear circuit properly.I bet all will be healed when you get a new CV...it would also be worthwhile to review the bleeding procedure they have in that 1984 manual and see if it differs any from what you do or have done.Regards,Henry
Don't forget to repair the dash indicator lamp at some point.
