depending on how your rear breaks are setup it may not be adviseable. before i swaped axles in my truck i had virtually no rear breaking. i simply disconeected the arm from the axle and screwed it up onto the bottom of the bed. that provided the right amount of ballance i felt. but when i swiched axles the breaks actually worked in on this one and it locks up to easly with no load in the rear.

You can just run a single line to the rear, and get a manual prop valve, and adjust as needed. Mine was rusted solid, so I trashed it. If you add a hydraulic ball-valve, you can trash all that parking brake crap also. Then, just step on the brakes and turn the handle 1/4 turn for a parking brake.
