OEM Rear Brakes 1989 Comanche

I'm finally trying to straighten out the my rear brakes. I watched a YouTube video by someone saying the OEM load sensing brakes do not work well and should be eliminated. I'd considered bypassing the proportioning system. However,  I am concerned the brakes on the wheels could be inherently more sensitive on this load sensing system. I have everything connected, but haven't bled the system. Is anything different bleeding the proportioning system?

Is there a diagram of the connections in this system I can use to confirm connections are correct? I haven't found these issues discussed in the forums.

In order to bleed MJ brakes:

Open the right front bleeder

Depress brake pedal and hold

Start engine, brake light should stay on after engine starts indicating bypass valve has moved (sensed front brake leak)

Turn off engine, leave bleeder open, release parking brake

Bleed left rear 

Bleed right rear

Bleed righ front (close bleeder when done)

Bleed left front

then repeat bleeding with right caliper closed

 

from the ‘92 service manual
