Reply to "What Are the Parking Brake Options with Aftermarket Brakes"

bosswrenchMember

Part of the problem here is the indiscriminate use of "Emergency Brake" and "Parking Brake" which are two separate functions. The USDOT specified emergency brakes as being able to stop a passenger vehicle within a specified distance without locking the wheels and/or losing control. They require a totally separate linkage from the main brakes. To my knowledge, parking brakes are only used on skip-loaders and fork-lifts without Fed specs and do NOT substitute for emergency brakes.
