1999 BlueBird International - Rear Brakes

Does anyone know if they are drum or disk? I bought a bus and don't have it home yet and just curious to what it is. I haven't been able to find much info online.

Thanks

Chris

Hmm, do you know if mine has drum brakes or not?

You won't get an answer the means anything without telling us more about the bus. Model, air brakes, how big the bus is?

Re: 1999 BlueBird International - Rear Brakes

Not sure I googled "1999 3800 bus brakes" and all listings had air brakes, the drum brakes are more than strong enough for our needs


edited stupid air brake questions after looking at all your pics of inside and inder hood

EDITED after looking at your pics it is hydraulic thats why it has a hydralic master cylinder on it.

So I can give no further advice...I did try tho'
