Jay, when did you put your LSPV bracket on?
I put mine in after almost a year after I put my lift on. I had crappy braking but all new brakes.. So I made the bracket, I drilled the holes and extra inch higher to give me a little more rear brakes. I have rear abs so im not worried.....

I felt the same difference. Before it would really pitch forward and unload the rear end... Now I can feel the rear brakes grabbing (like putting your e-brake on) when I put the brakes on... Its nice

I might zip tie it up to the maximun just to see how it would drive...

oh yeah, now the rear brakes will actually lock up on mine, which has kept me able to steer in an emergency (front didn't lock up)

And are these bungee cords and zip ties holding the valve in the exact same position as stock?

What happens in panic brake?

Are the brakes locking up in the correct order?

You either need a brake proportioning valve or place the valve near stock location
