yet another sprag question?
So I have read all the threads on sprag operation that I could find. The only thing I am not clear on is with the truck
NOT running and
NO air pressure at all in the system, does this mean the sprag is in neutral and the truck can be towed around the yard frontwards or backwards will no ill effects?
Thanks very much!
Chris

yep no air = neutral sprag. You can put a cutoff valve in the air supply line to serve the same purpose.
