Master Cylinder
Front & Rear Split Systems
When the brake pedal is depressed, both the primary (front brake) and the secondary (rear brake) master cylinder pistons are moved simultaneously to exert hydraulic fluid pressure on their respective independent hydraulic systems. The fluid displacement of the two master cylinders is proportioned to fulfill the requirements of each of the two independent hydraulic brake systems.
If a failure of the rear (secondary) brake system should occur, initial brake pedal movement causes the unrestricted secondary piston to bottom in the master cylinder ...

Proportioning Valve
Caravan, Town & Country & Voyager
These models use a proportioning valve and pressure differential switch, or a combination valve. When a premature rear wheel skid is obtained during braking, it may be an indication that fluid pressure to rear brakes is above a desired output and/or a malfunction has occurred within the valve. At this time, the valve unit should be tested as follows:
- Remove actuator assembly adjustment nut, Fig. , then disconnect assembly from valve lever and remove.
- Install gauge and Tee from line pressure set No. C-4007, or equivale...
