DISC BRAKES, FORD MOTOR CO. -> General Information -> PROPORTIONING VALVE -> DESCRIPTION -> TESTING

In this manner, premature rear wheel skid is prevented.
TESTING
When a premature rear wheel slide is obtained on a brake application, it usually is an indication that the fluid pressure to the rear wheels is above the 50% reduction ratio for the rear line ...
