Fastest Way To Change A Brake Chamber Piggy Back In Under 10 Minutes 

@@mattelsom5487 alternative is to have two separate LARGE ramps with aisle between them.That’s the way US Army does it.

Ya that’s slick! Then no need to measure and cut the end that connects to the slack adjusters right? My break pots in the front portion are always packed with mud I can’t get a cage bolt in.. what would happen if I took off that clamp closer to the axle without caging the break pot?

@@justinriben8197 if the parking spring inside was broken up good, nothing it would just fall off. If the spring is still somewhat intact, it would shoot off like a rocket. The parking spring has about 15,000 lbs of force so don’t put your face in front of the chamber when you take it off without caging it.

I cannot believe how easy you can take off those air lines.. I always thought once those fittings were put on tight they are stuck solid.

Just gotta get a good bite with the wrench and usually they’ll come right off

No, brakes were set. Both knobs out.

Yes, same exact process for most brake chambers regardless of truck or trailer

Just buy a new half chamber instead of a full chamber.
