I have been wanting to put together a system for pulling my tilt top trailer with my 56 when completed but the trailer has air brakes and the truck hydraulic.
I have now found what I need to build the required system to do just that Micro valve company makes a hydraulic over air relay valve that takes a pilot signal from a hydraulic brake system and delivers proportional air pressure from a compressed air supply to control air brakes on a trailer.
I will be using one of these valves and putting together a full system the truck will retain its hydraulic system there will be a single valve on the dash to charge the trailer brake system an ARB electric compressor and tank for air. The system will work for the trailer just as if the truck had air brakes. Just thought I would let you all know that there is a valve for this specific purpose. I will happy to show how it all goes together for anyone here who is interested.
