brakes
I know about drum and disc brakes (sorta) ... I have seen exhaust brakes and know about how and why they work ... I am now interested in driveline brakes ... What would be the dis/advantages about them?

You mean a pinion brake? A disadvantage would behaving only one rotor per axle thats gona hafta work twice as hard to stop and cool down. I would think trying to lock up your tires to come to a sudden stop if you had to could be very hard on gears and axle shafts if its even possible. I cant think of anything that would be real advantagious in the long run

Not pinion ... I once saw a disc brake setup on a driveline ... At least that is what it looked like ... perhaps these are more on bigger rigs rather than our everyday drivers ...
