Steering, brake fade

[rob love]

There was a problem with the park brake creeping on during use in the carriers. But you would likely have noticed that by now.

The short jabs is the procedure I was alluding to as being best. When I was attached to an Infantry Battalian, we used to drive the M113A2s the short 200 km trip down the highway from Winnipeg to Shilo. If a driver tried to correct for road crown by merely holding back one tiller bar, you would end up with the overheat light going on for the controlled differential. The correct way was you oversteered slightly, and let the carrier correct itself until it just passed straight away, then you jabbed it again, and again, and again....... Man, the left arm sure got a work out over the 4 hour trip.
