[VAC] Re: [a/s] 75 Aitsream Brake system follow-up
Don,
To the best of my (albeit limited) knowledge the disk brakes are vacuum,
drums are electric. Check for a small tank behind the LP tanks. About
large enough for 1-1/2 to 2 gallons. That is the vacuum accumulator.
The brake connection will be a hose with quick disconnect fitting. You
should be able to tell the difference by looking behind the rims for
either disks or drums. I don't believe there were ever electric disks
but I could be mistookin. That would not be a first. Second perhaps,
but not a first. ;^)>
I am also putting this out on the Vintage Airstream net. Any of you
vintage guys... er vintage trailer guys able to elucidate furtherly?
Thanks,
Matt
