Apparently. It's been around for quite a while. Randy Grubb is a master craftsman and is WAAAAAY out of the box on all his projects.

Hey;

So I understand how he did the steering system, and I can understand all of the electrical, but how did he do the brakes? There has been this BIG discussion here on the various problems with our braking systems, but I just can't figure out how the brakes were configured to work on this rig. Any ideas?

I'd be pretty amazed if it is anything but the stock brakes. Randy's claim to fame is the creativity and exterior, not the mechanicals.

He probably used a different pedal setup. The White tilt cab body that makes up the cockpit portion is really narrow. I have one and was going to use it in the build of the art deco car hauler but have decided it is just too narrow and will build a new front end from scratch.

Actually it should not need more than a clutch master pump and slave cylinder that has a linkage to the brake master cylinder for the brakes to work from the fly bridge Smile
