Fastest Way To Change A Brake Chamber Piggy Back In Under 10 Minutes

[@tadriangayden]

Brother you really saved me with this video, I’m still an apprentice & had to piggyback a chamber with no mentor tech to guide me but thanks to you I was able to get it done.

[@mauriceriley8264]

[@afrotube6273]

[@carloss9360]

Wow all with one hand great video

[@yakopro49]

I know I was impressed. The dude is a pro.

[@markiki77]

Excellent work thank for all

[@mattelsom5487]

Nice job, would love to have a pit at our shop. It's a pain one arming the piggy back laying down whilst getting the clamp around lol

[@MarcelinoCastro-rs9qe]

@@mattelsom5487 alternative is to have two separate LARGE ramps with aisle between them.That’s the way US Army does it.

[@kainaricopobre]

Nice vídeo thanks for help me a lot.

Good video

Is it 3 inch diaphragm or 3 and half? For a square hole?

[@DieselPump]

3

[@cesarorozco8795]

@ thank you.

[@JosephV-p7c]

When you put the vice grip on the push rod, did you do it while someone was pressing on the brakes?

[@DieselPump]

No, brakes were set. Both knobs out.

[@DieselPump]

Brakes are set, no air when replacing the chamber. There are many different ways to change them and this is just one way how I do it.

Ya that’s slick! Then no need to measure and cut the end that connects to the slack adjusters right? My break pots in the front portion are always packed with mud I can’t get a cage bolt in.. what would happen if I took off that clamp closer to the axle without caging the break pot?

[@DieselPump]

@@justinriben8197 if the parking spring inside was broken up good, nothing it would just fall off. If the spring is still somewhat intact, it would shoot off like a rocket. The parking spring has about 15,000 lbs of force so don’t put your face in front of the chamber when you take it off without caging it.

[@justinriben8197]

I cannot believe how easy you can take off those air lines.. I always thought once those fittings were put on tight they are stuck solid.

[@DieselPump]

Just gotta get a good bite with the wrench and usually they’ll come right off

[@rasanhundal740]

Yo bro when your cracking the two lines are the brakes applied or releaseed?

[@sk3pzCS2]

Applied

[@JJ-yi1nx]

Is this a semi trailer?

[@DieselPump]

Yes, same exact process for most brake chambers regardless of truck or trailer

[@kestermyronsoldmcmanager1273]

Best video on how to change them. The rest are shit

[@MarcelinoCastro-rs9qe]

Not the way it is done in the military. 63B20 preventive maintenance mechanic U.S. ARMY since 1972.

[@MarcelinoCastro-rs9qe]

Correction “wheel vehicle mechanic “ 63B20. 2 nd echelon service on 1/4 ton - 5 ton military vehicle . Recently did service deuce and 1/2 wrecker out in Thousand Palms, California.

[@terrabnadia1793]

Congrats. Nobody cares

[@patricioaguayo9088]

I never understood why they would brake apart a new chamber just to use half of it. The service side of the new chambers were everywhere, had to trash them.

[@DieselPump]

Just buy a new half chamber instead of a full chamber.

[@johnrice4528]

Made your life hard their boy release trailer brake while connected then change away

[@DieselPump]

It leaked too bad, hence why I’m changing it.
