Single master cylinder brakes

Has anyone used the standard Sierra master cylinder and rear drum brakes?

If so, did you need a pressure reducing valve in the rear line to stop you locking the rear wheels?

hi there,

I am using the sierra MC with rear 9 inch drums on my F27.

have only once managed to get the rears to lock up and that was on a cow sh1t covered lane

No pressure reducing vale required in my set up.
