Would it be a good idea to get an adjustable pro valve? Because I just did disk breaks in the rear and my breaks suck thanks for any help

yes it would be necessary to use a adjustable proportioning valve if you go with rear disc brakes

also, you need to gut your stock disc/drum proportioning valve. the disc/drum proportioning valve retains a little bit of pressure for the drum brakes to operate properly (rear disc brakes will drag).

drum brakes operate using a lot less pressure then a disc brake setup does. your stock disc/drum proportioning valve will not supply enough pressure to rear disc brake setup (calipers need more pressure)....which is why you gut the stocker and add a inline adjuster

It's NOT illegal. It's just frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.
