    They are not prohibited are they? And unless I am mistaken your trucks still use air to apply pressure do they not?

    Do you realize how silly this statement is?

    Brakes must meet minimum requirements. Anything in excess of the minimum requirement IS legal, despite whether or not it is specifically mentioned.
     
    SAR and Rugerfan Thank this.
