Technical The first trans brake???? model T???

learned something new already this morning....model T trans brake... I've got yard full of model t's , and never knew the T has a trans brake. that also works the rear brakes at the same time... so for anyone that never drove a T, heres a look inside to see what goes on with all those pedals the one to the left is forward , the center is reverse,... and the right is brake.... , the e brake pulled back is brake, in the center is neutral, and pushed all the way forward is hi gear...

 

The rear brakes are only the parking brake, they are not used when you push the brake pedal. That band in the transmission is the only thing that stops a T when you're driving. Which is one reason why you don't want to get one going more than about 25 mph, and you want to make sure you have plenty of room to slow down! they don't even have a front bumper to cushion the blow if you hit something.

 

Don't know anything about Model T's but are Rocky Mountain brakes actual driving brakes in addition to the trans brakes? Just asking.

 

I stand corrected... in the pic it looks like the far right peddal, the brake... is hooked to the rear brake....but you are most likely spot on,,,, I can drive one, and have 3 runners right now.... that is if everyone would stay out of my way

I haveone with the floor board out in vegas... gonna have to take a closer look, thanks for posting and the school'n

 

Yes, Conversion includes the neccessary linkage, and rods, to work with the foot brake pedal.

 

Thanks.
