Where to get the rear brake proportioning plug?

[ryana83]

I have searched through the other post describing this and can't find where to get them. I already got the GTP lca's and reducing sleeves, etc. Anyone know where to acquire the rear plug so that I can put my new control arms on and get rid of the -2deg of camber on the back?

Thanks,
Ryan

Don't quote me on this but I think shonut sells them. They are not listed on the website so you might want to email Josh.

You can also modify the stock fittings to do the same job,but of couse it`s not as easy as just installing a few plugs.

They ARE illegal (but SOOO much fun.)

Hey Eric,

Illegal how? Even if they are illegal, I would still plan on getting them.

Illegal? They're not illegal, except for SCCA stock-class autocrossing, maybe

In Mass, any type of splicing, or heavy modification of the braking system (mostly the lines) with non DOT approved parts is illegal.

Well, I don't live in that crazy state of yours. Tennessee has no laws that I know of to prohibit mods. But is ShoNut the only vendor that sells these?

It's basically the same set-up the lincoln conti's use, so I don't see how making the taurus work the same would be "illegal".

Perhaps my illegal statment was too harsh.

This I know is fact. The car does get a bit squirly if you brake hard while in a turn (incorrect driving for a FWD car anyways) but it does get loose.

and the back end is also alittle easier to kick out at traction limits.

But my car now out brakes my motorcycle. (ok ok its a 1977 with disc/drum brakes, but the damn thing weights 800 lbs with me on it.)

So perhaps "potentially unsafe" is the correct terms.

Please becareful with them
