HI all,
first post here and can't believe all the great advise.

I have a ?? about my brothers 98 4x4. On the rear axle drivers side there is a linkage that goes down near the wheel hub, what is that thing? Does it adjust braking when there is a load on the truck??

BTW, I will be picking up my 99 4x4 ctd on the 5th and that is when the real questions are gonna start

From what you described I would say yes. Take a look and see if it goes up to the proportioning valve for the rear brakes.

 

There has been a thread about this before, try the good ole' search button. Hope this helps. cumminsboy

 

I would have done a search but I have no idea what to call it.I Guess a propotioning valve makes sense of what I was thinking

Thats what it is and some guys have made thier own adjustable ones to make the truck stop a bit better, do a search on them and you will find it. Welcome aboard to the best Dodge site on the internet. Goodluck,,Rick
