Front lines T off the master and run to each wheel. Rear lines run through an adjustable proportioning valve and then to rear wheels.

Pretty simple

Oh, well I guess I misunderstood how it was supposed to work. I though the prop valve was supposed to be able to adjust the amount of brake force that was applied to the front or rear wheels. IOW, turn the valve one way and it would make the back brakes stop harder; turn it the other way and the front brakes would stop harder. I guess I would need another prop valve for that. Have you ever seen someone run two prop valves for tuning the brakes so the dont lock up

The proportioning valve simply limits pressure to the rear brakes. By doing this you adjust the balance in the braking system. It is not necessary, nor have I ever seen a proportioning valve installed on the front brakes. They always operate at full pressure.
