adjusting brakes question

I cannot answer that but it looks wrong to me for where the roller is with new shoes. New trucks had ES1 and ES2 shoes. Might see if your parts folks will let you try a set of each. Do not know if 1's and 2's will interchange, the springs are different. Always did like you and went back with what is on them.

 

Extended life cams with regular shoes? Just throwing it out there.

 

4711ES2 IIRC

 

They are extended life shoes….there’s no bump where the big spring hooks up. I also think that’s an extended life cam because i have only been able to use extended life shoes on the right cam unless the drums were turned and or the shoes partly worn. Otherwise you can’t get it together

 

Have you looked at anchor pin wear?

 

I still say its the long stroke chambers. It takes 2-1/2” of stroke to put the same force on drums as the standard strokes do at 2”.Pete air rides always have had standard strokes on them for a reason.

 

Guess I missed that. Yeah, can't use long stroke chambers on cams made for standard stroke chambers

 

Do the longer slack adjuster arms/levers work with long stroke cans on standard cams?

 

Different lenths and holes are just for different applications/chamber orientation. Pretty sure the only difference is the chamber and s cam.

If my memory is correct
