OK, I just did the drum to disc swap by changing out the king pins. I haven't moved the truck yet but the tires appear to be way out of whack. Does anyone know if there is an adjustment I can make if after moving the truck they do not straighten out? Also, I found an almost new power steering gear box and got a proportioning valve off the donor truck. The proportioning valve has a place in the top of it for a two prong electrical plug. Could not find the plug. Is the plug necessary for the proportioning valve to operate? Thanks.

If you move the truck, the tires will probably straighten out. I believe the connector is for the brake warning light. If the front or rear brakes loose pressure, the valve goes off center and the light comes on.

The connector is not needed, like Mike said it's for the brake warning light. Your truck should already have the plug tucked up in there somewhere.
