Big bolt go into hole bottom of brake spring can. Twist bolt until maxed. You now have caged brake. No brake on that wheel.
We need to send some of our tenderfeet newbies to physical training to develop the brawn to turn those big bolts. -
I have experienced the failure of the service side rubber divider, whenever you applied service air into that one, you lose so much air so fast you will have one of two problems. You will either get stopped at light or slowed to ramp speed or you will vent both the primary and secondary tanks to empty and get stopped by your springs.
at that point you will have to find the affected can and cage it. As well as loop and vice grip off that particular line. -
That’s right I forgot about that.

Actually steer axle brakes are included in the 20% criteria. Get a copy of the NASOOC and keep it with you for discussions. New ones come our every April 1st.
