While I was probing around I found a rubber hose that connects to a junction and then to the proportionate valve. I have a feeling it is going to be sealed shut.
I am thinking more along the lines of a valve being rusted shut somewhere between master cylinder and wheels. I’ll have a closer look at the ALB tomorrow.

Also I’m wondering if anyone swapped them for push in fittings?
in many instances before, finding lose bolts and things give a good indication what needs to be fixed on a newly bought vehicle.
So I never just toss stuff out and disregard it.
I want to have a closer look at the master cylinder today. I’ll check the TM as to what normal air pressure should be and start to look into where things leak exactly.
speed woble I was also going to rig up some pressure bleeder, kind of like you’ve described.
what if I take A particular line...
The previous owner said he couldn’t get the brakes to bleed . So that there are no breaks. I noticed that when I run the truck, it doesn’t build over 70 psi in air pressure. There are a bunch of air leaks going on. It’s raining cats and dogs today so I didn’t get to do much but get the truck off...
