rich.new holland Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 ive heared that nh tms put the tractor brakes on before the trailer brakes \ and jd put the trailer brakes on before the tractor and this is why they last longer on trailer work , but im not sure if this is true or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
