Not if the rears lock up well before the fronts. That is dangerous. Without an adjustable bias valve, that is what will be happening. Maybe a valve is already in place. You need to investigate what was done.

I’m completing a disc brake conversion on my Salisbury axle, and will be adding to this thread. I’ve encountered a problem with the caliper brackets (FTC3306). One of my brackets is threaded for M12x1.25 pitch caliper bolts, while the other is threaded for M12x1.75 pitch. I was unaware of this until attempting to mount the caliper with the finer pitch bolts (SYP500090), and they were obviously not going to fit. FTC3306 brackets were new in box. Has anyone else encountered this? Looks like I need to order some coarse thread caliper bolts (AFU1031).

Yes, same part number. FTC3306. One box had an older font on the sticker. Interestingly, I ordered another bracket from Defenders Northwest and it too was coarse thread. Same older font on the sticker on the box.
