Moresmoke Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Still chasing air leaks. I wanted to check the service brakes, but had no help around. I came up with a good use for a Quick grip clamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrap Posted May 12, 2018 Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 That is a good idea. My stick ticks me off. BVA-85 valve is what they make so the truck can do it itself. Slip it between treadle and firewall (or floor) bracket and give it air and it puts the brakes on like a city bus.. Lets you check service side gladhands yourself if you have a self returning trailer hand valve as well. Probably should be interlocked cuz you wouldn't want to hit that switch at the wrong time! https://www.anythingtruck.com/product/060-5009594.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
