 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?
