Locolines Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I have been lucky enough to have obtained a 40mm bofars AA gun. On a previous post a member kindly informed me its a 1938 and from Portugal. I presumed it had electric brakes but when I went to see it today I find it has hydraulic brakes on the trailing two wheels. However , at the towing end, there's no hoses or anything.... I am new to this military vehicle scene, so I was hoping that somebody could tell me how it actually applies the brakes ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rnixartillery Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) Oh yes I see it now , thank you, old eyes trying to read a new fangled iPad thingy.I don't think my old woman will be too happy hanging out the back of my truck pulling on a rope every time I shout Stop ! cheers for now Let her do the driving ! I know it sounds a primative system but I can tell you that the gun will tow very well behind any truck and there will be no need to have anybody, wife included hanging out of the rear of the vehicle.
