Straight to the point, no nonsense conversation. Thats what ive been looking for. Appreciated it sir.

I'm a yard hostler . One trailer pod locked up.. Never caged a pod before this. Yours was the first one that popped up. Straight to the point. No how's your mom jibber jabber. Got it caged so I can move the trailer to the shop Thank you. I'll be watching more of your vids👌🇨🇦

Thank you for the video!! My brake chamber airline been cut due to running over a tire recap and seen this video caged the brake and clamp the airline and made it to the closest shop

Straight to the point, thank you for this video!

Thanks for uploading this! I'm looking at buying an old trailer, and I might need to use this method to unlock/unstick the brakes.

Thank you for this helpful video. I really appreciated

I ran it in until it stopping as well. Now I have two kids🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

Fery noice! I like this informacion

I would like to see this on a non Big Tech platform. Please.

Perfect..

Cool

What size is that socket?

what size is the 5inch socket?

Reason for not using impact?

Question: If air is still supplied, will the service brake still operate with the spring brake caged? I say it will as it's no different than air holding the spring brake back. But 2 guys in the shop say it will not and that they've tried it before. I think if that is true then they has another problem. What say you, internet?

@Shardrk23

Depends on why you need to cage it. If road debris cut the air lines to the brake then no, it absolutely will NOT operate.

Please let me know on disc brakes.can you manually cage disc brakes

I use a pass through ratchet and socket. On a lot of trash truck applications there is something right behind the can and you wouldn't be able to get the socket on the cage bolt.

This will be my first time replacing my brake chambers on my trailer and i want to learn, but i also don’t want my face smashed, so my question is: Before i remove the brake chamber trailer brakes should be applied or released ? thank you!

@xanatgarcia9241

Released to remove all the brakes components, if you have access to air you can release the brakes and put the caging bolt in tighten up and then set the parking brakes if you lose air. It’ll save time and elbow grease, likewise when taking it out

Place 4 caging bolts in tool box in cab .

Is air pressure a problem and when uncaging do you just reverse until stopping? Trying to move a bus right now

@GarageGurus

5 жыл бұрын

Air pressure should not be a problem. Usually when caging brakes on the side of the road it’s due to the lack of air pressure and the vehicle needs to be moved. So caging the brakes releases spring brake pressure and moving the vehicle can now be accomplished. To uncage the brake chamber just turn the nut counter clockwise until the caging bolt can be removed. This applies spring brake pressure and now the vehicle cannot be moved without air pressure

And what if the center shaft is not centered allowing the cagong bolt to go in

@GarageGurus

5 жыл бұрын

If the center shaft, push rod, is not lined up with the caging hole the chamber should be replaced due to internal failure. If you cannot cage the spring, the chamber should not be in service. The spring has most likely broken causing the push rod to be pushed out of alignment. There are other internal failures that could result and that’s why it’s best to replace it. A failed emergency side will fail to lock up the wheel end in an emergency situation along with failure to set the parking brake.

Just wondering why they just don't use a free spinning washer nut or a flange nut so there are less parts to lose???? And the socket might be 5" deep but it's not 5" long and 5" deep. Not a trucker or truck mechanic but those caging bolts are cheap enough that I'm going to buy a couple just in case I run across a trucker in need.😊

Just wondering, if the plug has fallen off the opening and you cant cage the pot because its full of dirt will removing the brake pot release that brake?

@13eckerlosmuerte

You will need to remove the brake pot and clean the debris out then place brake pot back on, the pot is being used as a set force to keep the key engage in the cylinder. Unless you have a manufactured too that does otherwise it's just easier to do it with the pot on

So if a brake chamber locks up to move the truck or trailer to get back to the shop you would cage the brake chamber like this.

My line of work is completely different. I don't need this info. But now I know how to cage brakes. Why?

Can you do it on disc brakes

Yes.i used this on a booster for disc brake

OK but you can do the samething by backing off the slack adjuster

Is there something you have to do before caging like releasing the air or something for safety related? any one who is reading and knows this can answer for me. Thanks

Is it a temporary process in order to move a vehicle? And will the brakes lock up again if the bolt is taken out?

@turbo12v

Yes is temporary,you don't want to be caught driving a commercial vehicle with the chamber cage(or without brakes) Thats what are you doing eliminating the brake system. When you remove the bolt,brakes strat working again! That its just to replace the chambres,or my case. I need to move a trailer on the yard that I park Air tank leaks,and their is no enough pressure to release brakes. I cage those bolt and tire moved freely.
