Re: Please help. What is this part?
does that truck still have the break control , under the dash , I think what you have there is a pressure control for the trailer brake unit , the older trucks had hyd. type vrs the new truck of today being all electric , this unit you adjust the end knurled nob to gain more pressure or less

Re: Please help. What is this part?
My opinion.
If your not going to be hauling any loads with a trailer I would remove it and never reinstall it.

Re: Please help. What is this part?
I have a question regarding the removal of this component. Wouldn't it be a good idea to do a hard braking test (in an appropriately safe place) after removing it to make sure the vehicle won't try to swap ends? I think I'd want to make sure of that any time a change was made that might affect the brake bias.
