I don't think there is an adapter made to do what you're asking, and I would advise against cobbling together a bunch of fittings to make it work..

However, I think you can find a different residual pressure valve with larger threads so you can use 1/4" line. I'm pretty sure I've used some on another truck I had, so shop around for another valve if necessary.
