doesn't it share fluid with the differential? You just use the recommended fluid with the added modifier? My cousin has a 580E case and I believe you could get it with or without the wet brake and depending on if you have that differential that you use a different fluid
Is it possible to use fire resistant hydraulic Fluids such as pantoflux for wet brake systems or would a seperate oil tank and pump be needed for the braking system if fire resistant fluids were used elsewhere
Not sure about this particular setup, but i've had the same issue you mention on Spicer diffs before. Basically a failure of the brake piston seals will then allow leakage of hydraulic oil into the rest of the diff
So it's essentially a reverse clutch?
Presumably the less friction on the plates themselves the better the system will work?
:-)
what are the materials used in the manufacturing of this braking system?
Cool system. How often would the fluid need to be changed and the clutches replaced?

No need.
So, if the brake piston ever leaked, you would over fill the differential with oil and it would begin to leak out the breather?
Yes
Yes you will lose almost all of the hydraulic fluid and its a mess. Would rather have air drum brakes like older models
does the slack adjuster physically touch the discs? or does it force oil against them?
Yes it actually pushes against the plates - specifically the externally splined spacer plates which have no friction material on them.
Slack adjuster bro as the name say
@moat cool story bro.
I have a doubt sir can you please solve it
do they sell these for Land Cruisers
Land cruisers are garbage.
You

They are both hydraulic oil per the video. I wouldn't see any damage mixing hydraulic oil with hydraulic oil

How does the differential work on the dup truck
…lol
Ya that can happen.
Doesn’t cause too much damage
