Some cars have a separate "brake proportioning valve". This limits the
brake pressure to the rear wheels.

On some cars (French?) it a load sensitive valve with a link to the rear
anti roll bar.

Others (Japanese?) it's on the side of the master cylinder.

I had one fitted to the rear anti-roll bar on a Fiat 124 - I believe
they called it a "tipping valve"
