I need some help with the way the hard lines are routed on my '84. Does anyone have a diagram of which ports on the brake distribution valve (the block that takes the 2 lines from the master and puts out 2 for the front and 1 for the back) go to which ports on the master cylinder? My crappy Haynes manual does not have this diagram-ed. Thanks

I believe the rear port(larger reservoir) goes to the front brakes, the front port goes to the rear brakes.

is this in reference to the master cylinder or the block that is below it? and is front truck/grill- front? Thanks

I would prefer to have something to reference here as this is not something that I would like to screw up. Not sure what symptoms would manifest if I reversed these.

Here is the best pic I could get of the valve in question. The 2 lines running up are what I need to figure out which goes to the front port on the MS and opposite. Thanks

Alright I think I can figure out which lines at the proportioning valve are for what...

Can somebody just confirm that, on the master cylinder, the line closer to the firewall is for the front and the one further away is for the rear?
