Actually Bill, Jacobs makes an exhaust brake also.... so it "could" be called a "Jake" brake too. I know, I know, everybody considers the engine brake as being the Jake brake. Just thought I'd throw that out there. For a newbie, it could be confusing.
And DG, I don't think I've ever heard of a MH that had both.

I've never heard of having both either, come to think of it and was just trying to make some sense out of the post.
I guess those with an engine brake, could add and exhaust brake, if they wanted, but wouldn't know why.
Engine brakes are probably the best and most sure you can add them as well, even though, intensive and expensive, especially if the work should be hired out.
Having said this, I have no complaints with my single stage Pac exhaust brake and as long as it continues to function, like it does.
Question: Which makes the most noise during application, engine or exhaust brake and notice signs here and there that forbids their use.
