    I've searched Google, but couldn't find mtly answer. All I could find how was what they do.
    My question is how does the load sensing valve work?
    I got to wondering, because my truck is lifted and when I lifted it, I also raised the valve. Got to wondering of what it actually does.

    It regulates the pressure to the rear brakes based on suspension height, the theory is the more weight on the rear of the truck the lower the suspension will be thus the valve will increase rear brake pressure.

    Only 1st gen truck had them.
