John is correct the spring is used to apply parking brakes not to appy the brake when going down the road. Back some time in the late 50s or early 60s that made it law to have the brakes set up with that type of parking brakes because of to many big rig roll offs. that system is called or was called Calf. brakes. By the way those spring brake pods are sealed so not day they can not be opened up because to many people lost there heads or part of them tring to fix them with out the right tools. I still have a few of them in my junk pile.
