How do you adjust truck brakes?
You don't give the make or model, but on most older trucks if it has disc brakes, they are self adjusting. If you have rear drum brakes, most of those, you put the truck in reverse, go back till you reach say 5 mph, then hit the brakes. This turns a self adjusting start screw. Back up and hit the braks agin and again till the brakes work better. If it still don't work you may just have to have need pads and/or shoes. HTH, Chuck

Are spring brakes most effective as a parking or emergency break?
Spring brakes are intended to be used solely as parking brakes. If you're in a desperate situation, you can use them as an emergency brake, but if you're grossing out at 80k and going down Vale Pass, all you're going to accomplish is to burn up your brakes and possibly cause your truck to catch fire... best to just hit the runaway ramp at that point.
