Hydrolic brake questions

In the 4runner I have (1990 3.slow) there is a weight distribution like valve in the rear by the axle. Is there a way to just slip a "T" stile splitter and get the brakes to work at all the same or is there more into this weight system that will make it not possible? I know that the system make the brakes work more when the rea of the runner is loaded with stuff in it. Any replys are very appreciated Thanks.

The LSPV is there to keep the rear brakes from locking up and possibly lead to an accident. If there is nothing wrong with it there should be no reason to remove it.
It is adjustable though, so you can send a little more to the rear if you feel you need to.

That is part of the antimeteor collision dection system that supplies rear braking power to the system, it is the sensor that enables the pulsations provided by earthquakes directly under the road. :uhoh:
(this makes as much sense as my original post) :shakehead

Holy crap I missed that one completely sorry oops, red faced, head hung low. :(

That is part of the antilock rear braking system, it is the sensor that enables the pulsations provided by the ABS. The heart of the ABS is the pulsation driven by power steering hydraulic pressure, looks like a power steering unit but it's on the passenger side.

Not what he's talking about.
