Identify This on MC...? (1 Viewer)

[antFJ]

So I am replacing my brake master cylinder this week... still waiting for the replacement but when taking off the old one I realized that there was something attached to the RR pipe that I have never seen before. I searched as many pictures of MC's that I could find and did not see anything like this. Do I need to replace this as well? Any thoughts?

All I could think is that it is a proportioning valve(no idea what those look like)... but I don't have disc in the rear.

So for clarification a steel pipe went from RR to this and then a pipe out of it to the brakes... hope the pics help

It says ASCO - stock proportioning valve? I've never worked on an FJ that had stock disks though.

Yeah it is a stock proprotioning valve for cruisers with front discs.
