Title: Am I missing something
Post by: Lt403 on May 10, 2023, 08:02:30 pm
Hi everyone,
Was just under the coach changing the turn signal assembly and saw this.
Am I missing a cover or something?
I see the air lines going in(or out)
This is looking up by the steering box.
Thanks

There was a filter cap on there originally is my opinion. I will look for a picture of one.

I replaced the caps with 8 in long hose. I fixed a screen on the bottom of the hose. I think it is 1in in diameter but it's been a few years.

Could it be the exhaust for the parking break?

Trying to research but the connection here at FOT is lousy.

Here are some pics from the parts manual.
I'm thinking treadle valve but I'm not sure

First looking I thought there was a vent cover missing on your ride height valve.looking closer it still looks like a vent cover but not a ride height valve. On a ride height valve it's easy to make a different vent cover just by slipping a 1 in rubber hose over the valve vent and letting 6 or 8 in of hang while putting steel wool or screen on the lower end of the hose. that appears to be a foot pedal valve after adding pictures and my fix may not apply.
