    Looks like a quick connect fitting. Push the brass cap down it will then release the line. If it doesn't. Get a new quick connect fitting and cut the old one off..truck stops carry them

    Also....a pro tip.....you must bleed all of the air out of the truck before you start. Otherwise, the air pressure won't let you unhook.
    Then just push the 2 black thingies towards each other and it will come right out

    So have I and I never drain the air. In fact I have done it many times. I push the hose in while pushing down on the quick connect release
