Probably had a hydraulic trailer brake controller set up in the past.

X2. You could remove both pieces and eliminate two possible leak areas,but would need to bleed system. I guess if it ain't broke...

Looks like the proportional valve is on upside down and plumbed wrong.

good catch, it's a 69 (if it's the truck mentioned by his username) drum drum trucks had distribution blocks not porportioning valves. It doesn't hurt anything but it's definetly wrong.

You are correct. Drum/drum.

Thanks guys.

I could be wrong But I think its some dill hole's attempt to plug a fitting that don't belong there in the first place.

Maybe that part is part of an old line lock system for the front brakes so you can smoke the rear tires until you're blue in the face. Is that distribution block upside down though?
