two valve stems under front hood

Does anybody have an idea or know what these two valve stems are for?
I have a 1982/83 build year barth regency diesel pusher 35ft and I tried to trace the passenger side and it dissappears from underneath coach and thru the flor and then!
there valve stem on each side of area as you raise front hood on coach, could this be for air bags or air suspension or what?
My other question is, I raised my dashboard top and seen that I had a red light on for low brake fluid in the front master cylinder, does anyone out there know where the front and rear master brake cylinders are located at, that has same coach as I do?

The valve stems are most likely for the air bags in your front coil springs..............Carl

It's listed as a 1983 country camper regency (country coach and barth contracted to build this coach according to paper work and was built in junction city oregon, it has the 8.2 DD in the back with a Allison auto 4 speed transmission.still haven't found master cylinders for brakes and the 2 valve stems, I traced one to the underneath passenger side of coach and right before rear tires, the airline goes up and into floor, would really be great to find these two things. Thanks for the help and maybe with the new information, you can help me out.

Do you have air brakes? Look for the big yellow knob that locks the parking brake. If so you won't find master cylinders as each wheel will have air over hydraulic cylinders that are your brakes. This coach could have a manual way to inflate the suspension bags, like found on some trucks: you can add air to level a coach as weight changes. You might add air and see if the coach rises when you do. You can also put a gauge on the valves amd read the pressures.If below 50 psi then suspension or convenience items are surely the culprit. Can't think of any safety system that won't have at least 100 psi.

Hello thanks for info, it does have air over hydraulic system but the lite under dash, say front master brake cylinder is low on fluid, and there's a lite for a rear master cylinder as well but it's not lit up.
