Russel's Scania, under his Liebherr has a hydraulic retarder in the gear box, works much like a Telma, with variable levels on a stick, plus an exhauster ...
hardly ever touches the brakes and the retarder is quite remarkable when it really gets 'applied' (y) :cool:
Will hold you up to almost full stop got them in ours only problem is you hardly use brakes they glaze over so week or two before test we don't use retarder to sharpen up the brakes for the test 🤣
