ME226298
Exhaust Brake Assembly
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Exhaust Brake Assembly, also known as the Jake Brake, is a crucial component in commercial trucks. This assembly is responsible for reducing the speed of the vehicle by restricting the flow of exhaust gases from the engine. The Exhaust Brake Assembly is activated by a switch on the dashboard, which sends a signal to the engine control module to close the exhaust valves. This creates a backpressure in the engine, which slows down the vehicle without the need for constant braking. The Exhaust Brake Assembly is particularly useful when driving downhill, as it helps to maintain a safe speed and reduces the wear and tear on the brakes. It is also beneficial when driving in congested areas, as it reduces the need for constant braking and acceleration. The ME226298 Exhaust Brake Assembly is a high-quality part that is designed to withstand the rigors of commercial trucking. It is an essential component for any truck driver who wants to ensure the safety and longevity of their vehicle.
