Key Features & Benefits

This part basically manages the air pressure going to your trailer brakes. It's a distribution valve – it takes the air signal from your truck’s brake pedal and sends it to the spring brakes on your trailer axles. It controls applying and releasing those spring brakes. It handles air delivery, and it also has a safety feature to prevent the trailer brakes from releasing unexpectedly. Think of it as a central hub for your trailer’s air brake system. It's positioned between the air lines coming from your truck and going to the trailer axles. It’s really the heart of controlling those trailer brakes, telling them when to hold and when to release. It’s a key part of keeping everything synchronized and working safely.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

This is a safety item, plain and simple. If this part fails, your trailer brakes might not apply correctly, or they might even release when you don't want them to. You’ll notice if it’s going bad - you might get really long stopping distances, or the trailer might pull to one side while braking. A failing Midskirt can cause serious problems, so it’s not something to put off.
