    I have a set of Dan 44 s front and rear and have converted over to a vacuum assist off of a ford ranger. I am using a rear prop valve but don't seem to be getting enough braking power. Just wondering if anybody over here at this forum had done something similar before thanks.

    Hmmm. You'll have more luck getting an answer if you reveal what vehicle you're working on. What master cylinder are you working with? Drums or disc?

    Like AKCJ said, more info needed. What year booster? What master cylinder? What dana 44's? Are these conversion brakes or factory to the axles? What work has been done?
