Installing a Demco-Duo brake system in my 2021 Ranger. Has anyone done this and if so please let me know where and how you installed the vacuum line tee and check valve/s into the brake vacuum system. Photos would be great also since there is a lot of crap on that particular line/s.

Update: Done. Took a deep breath, cut the hoses and figured it out myself.

Hello, new here. I just bought a new Ranger to tow, and will be transferring the Invisibrake over from my old TOAD. Can you share the location wher you cut the vac hose to install the 'T' and one way valve? I think I have it pinned down but like you am hesitant to cut without confirmation. Is it the one I am pointing to in the pic? between the vac booster and the sensor valve? thanks......

I cut the vacuum line and used 2 clamps and the adapter to go from two different size lines. I bought the reinstall kit by Demco to make it easier. Came with everything I needed.
Hope this helps

Notice the check valve on the left side of tee. Making sure the black end in towards the engine.

Thanks a lot, that's where I thought. I installed the system on my CR-V but with just the one line it was obvious where it went. I also bought the second vehicle kit with all needed parts except the main unit and servo.
