You shouldn't need a residual pressure valve for the drums. I'm not sure what
you have, if it's a variable restrictor it's for changing the front/rear bias
then it might be useful, though I don't care much for them. You want a
residual pressure regulator to keep the disk pucks from withdrawing too far
when you let off the brake (the seal lip elasticity pulls them back). That
isn't necessary with drums because you have mechanical adjustment of that.

instead of the drums? If so, I assume a 2# unit would be the correct size?
