rear brake load compensator
#1
how does this thing work?
is it ajustable?
does it need ajusting cause of lowerage?

mine on the six is under compresion (closed) all the time
so when the car gets loaded its under even more spring tension

the lever is free but held closed by the smaller spring on the back side when the car is jacked up

im guessing under brake pressure the valve moves via hydrolic force but the spring loads it to stop this under load in the car

so valve closed = little brake force to rear
valve open = more brake force to rear

what effects dose this have on braking if its stuck closed?
