Maxi brake question.

Supposed to be number of years..and grind..man think i need to sleep..lol.

 

I bought my trk used. That may be why one slack adjuster sticks out farther when set. I thought it was out of adjustment, but it wasn't. Shoes wear pretty much equal. Never had any that all wore the same you know as far as reline time. Yeah those new no clamp maxies were on my friends new t-680. He had one leak and the trk wasn't even 1 yr old. He went to change it and no bolts on the clamp. Think he took trk back and had them change them out. Also they are on new chassis we pull. I would go with the long stroke also. Honestly i don't know what mine has. But i carry a piggyback with me for parking lot repair. Gonna say roadside repair, but not ready to die yet.

 

I have had to cut the bands off on side of the road because all I had was a piggyback. Been that way on our 2015 up Paccar product, that is why we keep a long stroke welded clevis on service trucks. We have some Heil trailers that have non-serviceable TSE branded brake chambers, and knock on wood I haven't changed one and trailers are old as 2004. Seems to hold up better than even MGM chambers.
