In post 34 you state that with the front brakes connected that the pedal push rod only moves about 3/4 inch but without the fronts hooked that it moves 1 1/4 inches-that says "the brake caliper volume requirements aren't compatable with the system--front calipers should take more volume than rears in a properly sized system---Your combo valve I haven't seen one like it????

I believe that this situation would be caused by the rear sprags not coming out of their "pockets", increasing the volume capacity of the rear calipers. The more we talk about these "e-brake rear calipers" the less I like them.
