[VintageLambo] Front/Rear brake proportioning

Noah Mackenroth

Body of Message

Hi Brake Exerts (I know you"re out there): I"ve recently noticed that I"m getting far more brake dust on my rear wheels than on my front wheels. Curious, I made a few panic-stop tests to investigate; sure enough, the rears lock up well before the front ones. My unconfirmed impression is that the fronts are working, though. How should I approach this situation? My brakes had major work done on them recently, but as it was farmed out, I don"t know exactly what was and what was not done. Can I just tweak the proportioning valve? Is it adjustable? Where is the thing (something that looks like such a mechanism is located below my brake fluid reservoirs on top of the left front wheel well)? Any help available would be greatly appreciated - Thanks in advance, Noah Mackenroth 1973 Jarama S #10488 .
