exhaust brakes
#16
One other note I thought I'd add to this- after reading a few posts about "wooshing" sound with brakes, I was a little mystified, I don't really get that noise that I know of...
Then the other day I heard a truck coming down a long hill with a HUGE whooshing sound from the exhaust brake. The full closure brakes don't make that noise, there is a "hissing" from the tailpipe due to the plate not sealing completely, but no whooshing. Not really important, but I think that noise would irritate me. Sounds like a turbo boot blew off or something. BD and the newer Banks brakes are full closure, and sound more like "big rig slowing down" than "something's wrong with your truck".
