Reason I ask is there are horizontally split brake systems and diagonally split brake systems. In a horizontally split one bowl in the master cylinder operates front brakes and one operates the rear. In diagonally split one bowl operates one front and alternating rear brake. I think you have a horizontal system. The proportioning valve is designed to shut off the rear or front system if there is a problem so you atleast have two brakes to limp on and help stop. Check your rear brake lines and hardware over. Sorry for the long response but I tried to explain the best I could.
