WHERES THE ENGINE BRAKE?

Where do you get one of those???

 

I'll try to get a pic when I'm at the yard next week. I fab up a bracket that clamps to the shifter and just use a standard toggle switch.

I won't take credit for coming up with the idea though, I saw it years ago on a guy's dumptruck.

 

HAHA. Reminds me of training for this tanker gig. I had to drive a #### box Cascadia. On day 4 I told my trainer “ I’m telling you the fricken jake brake on this thing does not work”
My trainer tells me “It’s on the steering wheel”
Me - “Oh there it is, stupid Freightliner. I hate this truck.”
Then my trainer proceeded to laugh at me for the next hour.

 

I'd like to put one of these on mine for the Brakesaver. Wonder if they make them to fit the older style 15 speed knobs?

 

What about a lever sticking outta the steering column behind the wiper lever? Or maybe just a stripped down truck?

 

I couldn't find it on my new truck it turned out you had to use the slap stick on the right to engage it like you turn on your windshield wipers.
