    Questions regarding M123 brakes........

    I hope some one with a 10 ton would help with this . I said 30/30 chambers may be to small because that is a common size for trucks running 11 24.5 tires and your running duel 14-24 tires . I drove a Mack and Internationals with 12-24 tires and they had larger air chambers then 30/30 .

    Questions regarding M123 brakes........

    I would check the travel on your brake chambers from all the way in (foot off the pedal ) to all the way out (foot on the pedal ) If it uses type 30 chambers 2 inches of travel is the legal max .

    Deuce Tractor with civvy 28' pup trailer?

    It's good because if you have to park on a hill you have a better brake set up .S cam with maxes is much better then air over hydraulic or wedge brakes . If you loose your fluid on a hydraulic brake system truck you still have air for your trailer .

    Civilian trailer use's 2 inch king pin common size . Civilian trailer with air brakes and easy to find brake parts . Pulling a full air brake trailer behind a truck with hydraulic brakes is a good feeling . Good idea.
