Something else to consider: Brake pressure applied on hydrualic brakes is proportional to how hard you push the pedal. With air brakes, it's how *FAR* you push the pedal; pedal pressure is usually 20 to 25 pounds of force from the top to the floor. It's a different mindset.
First time I drove a vehicle with air brakes, I was very proud of myself: for not putting myself through the windshield! |
