Anyone check the temperature of their brakes
Are there any of you that have checked the temperature of your disk brakes after 30 or 45 minutes of heavy use. Are the front and rear disk about the same temperature and what temperature were they?

I slow down to a speed that the exhaust brake will hold. The transmission will shift down as I slow down So it is combination of the exhaust brake and gear that will keep me from speeding up. That way I am not always using the brakes to slow down. I may have to go pretty slow on a steep grade. I drive out west and I seem to be always going over some mountain pass. I am often going down about 40 - 45 mph.
When I was in Camp Freightliner, they said to go down the grade no faster than you went up the grade.
