Well,

I'm not going to enter into a big screamin' match here because it has been too many years since I worked on 'em and I probably wouldn�t remember correctly anyway, but there are straight air brakes and there are air over hydraulic systems. Additionally, some smaller outfits use a vacuum over hydraulic system.

The different systems work totally "backwards" from one another, depending on the system used.

However, I do have a very vivid recollection of crawlin� under �bout what seemed to be a million rigs to tighten down the snubbers on each wheel's actuator can to make �em release when they are dead in the water and the air tanks were empty.

Heck, I dunno.
