Odd that 1 side grabs before the other side on the front. Simple question I know but are they assembled right? I once had a customer bring a drum brake car in they tried to do a brake job on themselves. They had it assembled wrong. It was many years ago and I don't remember exactly what they had wrong, but when you tap the brakes they would lock up. Do you have any wheel cylinder leaks? Passenger side front may be grabbing first because driver's side front has wet brake linings? Just a couple ideas to add to Tech's thought about not needing the proportioning valve with that setup.
