    Brakes driving me mad

    Thanks but I have never ever seen anything like this in 30 years. Went down my friends farm track it won't lock the brakes on gravel but if you block off the rear brakes it will scream the front tyres at any speed on tarmac. What about someone's been tampering with the servo push rod and wound...

    Brakes driving me mad

    Yup it got the bias valve fitted and it's got britpart brake shoes on the rear and mintex on the front. What's confusing me is the front wheels will lock when the backs disconnected but won't even think about it when it is. Is it the master cylinder ? When I spliced the brakes into 1 circuit...

    Thanks but yes they are fitted correctly, I am totally flummoxed. Took off drums this morning bone dry. What the xxx is going on what the chances of a britpart master being bad. I was going to get an axel but what if it does the same , I have never seen anything in my life like this

    Brakes driving me mad

    Thanks bud yup they are all adjusted , it feels like when a wheel cylinder pops on a car but you can't get it to hit the floor. It's strange. I just put new cylinders on and I am telling myself it can't be them. I'll see tomorrow. Blocking off the rear with a welded brake fitting in the master...

    Yes thanks I know all the young guys seem to think it's 3500kg max , for them it is. I was just wondering about these coupled brakes , do you know if that's a legal requirement because I can't find it anywhere in the legislation.

    Right thanks for your reply so no one can point me to the legislation moreover my b+e is not restricted to 3500kg. Train weight is everthing. A 110 is from memory 6800kg. If the vehicle is not loaded to its max the trailer can take the vehicles weight , 5900-1750 =4150 so 4150 for the trailer...

    Train weight 5900kg check your vin plate. My or any other old people lol b+e is not restricted to 3500kg. That's the truth I think a 110 is 6800kg or is that a 130. I am not talking about c1. A 90 is approved to 5900kg train weight. I just looking for the coupled brakes I keep hearing about in...

    I have been doing it for god 30 years , does not matter what your driving with weight on if you drive to quick you'll never stop it. Ask a lorry driver. I just trying to find this coupled brakes in the legislation, I think its a urban myth , because know one can point me to it

    Towing

    Yes thats my point, I don't want a coupled brake set up. I could use a tractor if I wanted (friends) but it's just sometimes I am moving dirt and most of the time the load will be under 3.5 tonnes, but sometimes when I am tipping it the pump groaning a bit and I am thinking that load when it...

    So know one knows. Since I passed my test 1992 I am not restricted to 3.5 tonnes on b+e. That's fact not my feeling. A 90 train weight is 5.9 tonnes ie 90+trailer+load. I was just wondering , people seem to quote coupled brakes , but I can't find that in the legislation. I was hoping someone...
