    M925A1 "Brake Chamber" issue?

    No argument. Your braking description used to be the standard, taught to everyone for every vehicle. Now they just teach "stomp it and let ABS modulate". In the early days of ABS a skilled driver could get a shorter stopping distance than ABS. That hasn't been the case in quite some time...

    M925A1 "Brake Chamber" issue?

    I'm old enough that I learned to drive before ABS was in widespread use. I had been driving years before I ever drove a vehicle with ABS, including OTR tractor trailers. On most vehicles ABS is a bandaid for lack of driver skill. On these, the ABS is a compensatory mechanism for that auto...

    M925A1 "Brake Chamber" issue?

    Tag with date of manufacture will be on the drivers side of the engine. It almost certainly says 1984. However, I've seen four that say 2007..... Any place that works on large over the road trucks can work on these. Ideally you want to learn to do just about everything yourself. These things...

    No title is a red flag. Make sure you can get it titled before considering proceeding. That explains the pricing...

    M925A1 "Brake Chamber" issue?

    That's a screaming deal for a decent M925. Granted, we have extremely limited data on which to base this.... Leaking brake chamber may be the service side, or may be the emergency side. Either way it's a trivial fix. Emphasis - DO NOT DISASSEMBLE the brake chamber until/unless you know what...
