Jeep Folks and Good Mechanics, got a different question...?
On the brake proportional valve, the port where the rear brake line thread in, what size fitting/thread is that? I know it's a 3/16 brake line but the threads could be 3/8-24, or M10, or M12. I need to plug that port til I have time to replace that brake line, as the owner still has to go to work, he has front brakes no back brakes (YET)
Real old mechanics only please, I've already got two dumbass answers, the front brakes will work with the back

Go to parts store, bring the old one, correct it sameday, or do not enter traffic since you attempt to make faulty equipment by the standard of the law and insurance liability.
Get someone to drive their car and pick her up while you correct it properly.
If you cannot get the like repair accomplished, or buy easy install parts there, a hydraulic line repair shop or brake shop can assist you.
Seen it many times, But had to match parts up, transfer nut over and or adjust length and reflare double flare or ISO flare.
The u-pull-it yard is another idea if you are a beap chastard.

The REAL old hillbilly/redneck trick is to git yerself a small nail and stick it in the busted lines fitting. Then put the fitting back. No need to ask opinionated know-not-much folk.

Good lord. I suspect you are joking, but if not, you clearly don't know what you are doing. For pete's sake take the truck to someone who does before you kill somebody.
