What is a quick release 1 air brake valve?
QR1 valve is the brake valve to the steer axles. Follow the service lines from the brake chambers to where they intersect, and that's the valve they're both attached to. It meters air to the brake chambers and also governs air pressure in the brake chambers.
What is a service line in a tractor trailer?

What are spring brake chambers?
They have two chambers - a service chamber, and an emergency chamber. These will typically be T30 brake chambers (as opposed to T20 brake chammbers used on steer axles, the #3 axle on International Prostars, and the Kenworth T2000, and on wedge brakes). Inside the brake chamber, there's a spring that, when decompressed, turns the S-cam (or flat cam, although those are a bit rare) and effectively engages the brake. This is your parking brake. When you supply air to the emergency chamber, air pushes against this spring... when that air pressure is 60 psi or higher, it exerts enough force against the spring to compress it, releasing the brakes.
What is the minimum thickness of brake rotors?
