Was wondering if anyone has any info on the brake system in this truck. It is a hydraulic actuated brake pedal(MICO) that goes to what looks like an accumulator,was wondering if this is a wet clutch pack type sytem that is internal to the transmission as there is nothing at any of the wheel hubs. The Parking/emergency hand brake is a caliper/rotor assembly on the driveshaft, the customer says the brakes act weak at times and feel like they drag as if the drum was rusty and the pads were hanging up but as i stated there is no brake assemblies at the wheels.
Any info would be greatly appreciated as far as a hydraulic diagram or a brake section from the manual?

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
