Back in 2012, Wylie Wilson thought he’d give air disc brakes a try on some new trucks, just to see how things went. “We were running all drum brakes, and we’d have to do at least one brake job – maybe two – on the trucks before we traded them in, but we have really good drivers, and we were getting decent mileage out of those brakes.” Three years later, he checked those Bendix ADB22X air disc-braked trucks alongside drum-equipped counterparts and found they had operated at several hundred dollars cheaper per wheel-end: a big cost reduction for his Red Wing, Minnesota-based fleet, Wylie Wilson #Trucking, Inc. “The brakes really proved themselves worth the investment and worked great,” Wilson said. “And with the safety and stopping distance advantages, everything is such an improvement that I don’t know why anyone wouldn’t want them.” https://lnkd.in/gR2y3Hnd
