Disc Brake Check Valve

I am getting ready to put my disc brake kit from CCP on and was wondering if there should be a check valve to each wheel or just one check for both wheels?

Thanks
Terry

Depends on the configuration of the brake lines out of the m/c or
proportioning valve. Take a look at my gallery. It should answer
your questions. The Wilwood valves are pressure regulating and
check valves. BTW I looked at your gallery and that's one sweet ride.
Keep up the dream.

no image, but i used only one f/r...

The combination valve is supposed to have a 10# residual (drum) for the rear included...

I used a 2# in line from m/c to combination valve... there was enough room.

did not use a proportioning valve and have not 'yet' seen the need.
