Planning a Military Vehicle 'Brewery Encampment'

There are two basic types of mechanical parking brake systems used on most vehicles with hydraulic service brakes, as well as on many vintage vehicles equipped with air brakes. The first type, shown here, uses a drum or disk on the transmission or the transfer case output. When the brake is applied it locks the drive shaft so the vehicle’s rear wheels can’t turn. This system is used on many common collector military vehicles, including most jeeps, Dodge WCs and M37s, Kaiser M715s, some early model HMMVWs, most deuce-and-a-halfs, five-ton trucks, and also on many larger vehicles and construction or material-handling equipment. This CCKW example uses an external contracting band type brake.

G.I. Jeep Tales

Too many Jeep histories overlook the significance of the M170, the battlefield ambulance of the G-758 series. Known as the “MD-A” in Willys nomenclature, the M170 is the among the hardest to find of post-WWII Jeeps, and one of the most difficult to completely restore.

One of the most common reasons a parking brake won’t hold is that the mechanism that applies the brake — the handle or lever in the driver’s compartment, and/or its connecting linkage — is worn-out, broken, or out-of-adjustment.
