Do not remove the brake pressure regulator. The brake pressure regulator controls the brake pressure in the rear wheel brake circuit depending on the load on the rear axle. As the load increases, it allows brake fluid to flow to the rear wheel cylinders, which increases the pressure in their circuit and improves the efficiency of the rear brakes.
Brake pressure limiting function check.
