3306 jake brake
Anyone know what it takes to add them, if they can be added to a 3306? There is one in the Steiger and it's brakes aren't too good. Jakes sure would be nice. Especally with 69,000 pounds in the cart.

Dang. I don't know about newer Steigers, but the older ones had one big brake disk on the front driveshaft. Not the best set-up for stopping 110,000 pounds of tractor, corn, and grain cart.

I'm not intimate with them, but have worked on one or two before. Old gear and big weight never sounds like a good idea. if the truck is rated for it, it shouldn't be a problem. But if its overloaded........
clearly never heard of it.
