Dear All,
Not the prettiest of installations but here's the solution to the front wheels locking up far too easily in the wet. A brake bias valve.

Hi Paul,

Personally I prefer a screw-type proportioning valve as you can control precisely the amount of bias. Those lever ones only give you 6 or 7 positions and I often find you want something between 2 of the settings !!! If you encounter such a problem just swap it with a screw type. Depends if it works for you but rarely do we fit them to rally cars.

Does your car have a pedal box?

Scusemy ignorance but wasn't a brake bias valve fitted as standard from late 2003 onwards?
