Thanks to your M-seies Maven, David Doyle, I have a pointer to the M35A3
manual with its dual circuit brakes!

However, as good as that manual is, it has one GLARING omission. I cannot
tell
if an M35A3 has 2 wheel cylinders per wheel. If it does not, then from what
I can
see of the pumbing, it all ends at the proportining valve. I cannot believe
that they
went through all this plumbing w/o carrying it all the way through. It shows
a dual
master, dual air-packs and a proportining valve then the next figure show
stuff
hitched together in a single circuit, unless of course it is X2 by way of
dual cylinders
per wheel.

Thanks again Dave

PS: Is there any 3 axle truck (non mil) with juice brakes and a dual circuit
brake system?
