The proportioning valve reduces pressure to the rear cylinders. On passenger cars and especially light trucks, the majority of the weight it transferred to the front axle during braking. Your truck is already designed to have equal hydraulic pressure at front and rear, and most of the braking is done on the rear because it's supposed to have a load on it. If you run the proportioning valve, you will practically eliminate rear braking.
