I dunno ;
VW's trucks from 1952 through 1970 had them too .
Old Datsun trucks had them , I remember lotsa vehicles with them when I was a Gas Station Mechanic .
Properly set up , they work a treat and halt your rig RIGHT NOW with minimal foot pressure .
The Datsun's brakes however , gave me fits and never stopped very well .
