{"replyTo":"","text":"Depends on why it froze.  You set your brakes overnight and they won't release supposedly banging on the drum will sometimes get it to release. I have never gotten that to work and if you miss the drum and hit the brake shoe you will likely break the brake shoe.\n\nI've never had a air line freeze up but the only fix for that would be melting it.  Finding WHERE the line is actually frozen would be a bear.","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"Brake line anti-freeze works. So does rubbing alcohol. I’ve used it for years. I pour a very little bit into each line before I go into extreme cold weather. I never pull my trailer brakes either. Works great. \nThank you all for the positive input and feed back. I pray you all have a wonderful thanksgiving and God blesses you and yours.

{"replyTo":"","text":"Some might find this crazy but if I know I'm about to shutdown for the night in the cold, I use slightly rougher brake application for maybe the last 30 minutes to give me just enough time for my brakes to not freeze especially during inclimate weather.","replyToPid":0}
