    I like your attitude. Replace it all so you know, and keep your parts inventory as simple as possible.

    Good video pal, I'm amazed how many young drivers do not know how to cage a brake pot. It's good that guys like you are able to share the knowledge

    I like keeping everything uniform. i also like to start with new brake chambers. at least we know those will be ok for a few years. i like the name change. much easier for me to remember. nice smooth job ezra. have a great holiday!

    • @Ezrider359
      @Ezrider359  3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Main reason I went ahead and changed all of them was because rather than carrying a brake can for on the road repairs I Cary a half can and a pancake gasket much quicker to do in a parking lot should you have a brake can start leaking while you're away from home

    My other half gets frustrated sometimes when I do a project, and end up replacing brake cans and then that leads to new slack adjusters and air lines.. If it looks like it's worn, it's getting replaced while I'm there. Don't want to take it all back apart in a few weeks cuz I got lazy or cheap.

    if you still have the air leak issue pull the orange hose out of the relay valve under the fifth wheel between the abs modulator valves, the factory paints the air line before installing cabs and then plug the line into the cab and the paint migrates to the relay valve and causes air to leak past the oring on the diaphram, excellent job on instructing others on how to properly install a brake chamber, only thing you did not cover is the two hole positions on the scam tube,

    I have a long story that i'm going to make short on this topic... when i was young, stupid, and learning things the hard way, i decided i was going to change a leaky pancake in one of these without knowing about that 1700lb spring was in there. I got very lucky and didn't get hit in the face... it hit me in the sternum and completely knocked me out. I was ok after that so hard lesson learned. This was back in the day when the canisters were clamped together.

    I would agree with your general philosophy that brakes and steering are the most important issues where as most people are concerned primarily with will it start and move and give little thought, until it is too late, to be sure that they can slow, stop and park the vehicle safely whatever the size or type the vehicle happens to be!
    Excellent clear and detailed video on this topic, well done.
    Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and all your family.

    Boy do I remember doing brake chambers I hated doing them on my back. But then a company worked for had a pit and that made it easy. Over my 15-year career I probably did hundreds of break cans and a few that were rusty and crusty crunch cage the spring because the damn hole was all rusted out that one was a dangerous can got it off though without hurting myself or anybody else.

  • @brucehodges7889
    @brucehodges7889 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another job you make look so easy. I always put anti-seize on the clevis pins cuz I hate it when they seize up either on the slack or the clevis. Not so much on the tractor but on trailers that might sit for a while. I actually found some greasable pins but are a little pricey compared to plain ones...

  • @mattberg916

    • @charlesb4267
      @charlesb4267 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've learned that too, have clevises on hand of both the 1/2 and 5/8 pin size as well as spare pins as often the clevis or pin is garbage or by the time it comes off the truck it is !. Standard stroke Bendix 30/30 pots I buy come with a clevis but its always the 1/2 pin size typical to fit steer axle or trailer and not the 5/8 pin typical for drive axles. I felt your pain ( hit on the head ) as its an awful awkward place to be working and those darned 5/8 studs on the pot can have their nuts rusted on/threads mangled so bad and be forced into using the hot knife to cut it right off if its bad enough. Although not mentioned, often a person has to loosen off the service brake pot clamp just enough to rotate the air ports around to line up properly and I like to have the two clamp bolts to the sides or at least not have one directly at the bottom as that is just one more thing to get snagged on when crawling around under the truck or get hit in off road situations. WAY better to be doing a job like this in your heated shop vs be on the road with known pots on their last legs and forced to deal with it on the side of the road.
