ABSTRACT:
A bracket body which is easily affixed to the brake rod and clevis member of conventional brake adjustment apparatus of air-actuated braking mechanism, provides indirect measurement of brake rod travel and adjustment, by the body showing the amount of angular rotation of the brake's adjuster member, even though brake rod travel is a generally linear stroke movement. The bracket body has a central body portion from which extends two extension members, a first one of the extension members being provided with attachment for the clevis and brake rod assembly, and the central body portion with attachment to the clevis pin. The second extension member provides the visual reference by relevance to the adjuster member.
