I am going to have to change one brake chamber on the read of the 5 ton, does it unthread at the bucket or would it be best to change the bucket and the pipe nipple that goes to the well hub.

You simply cage the spring can with the caging bolt and remove the 2 bolts on the clamp.

The tube will unscrew from the brake spider. You have to remove the spring can prior to that though. Will make it alot easier
