The apparently undersized transmission brake thus has more holding ability than its small size might suggest, but is less suitable for driving loads.

In 1923 a year after the OE's introduction mechanically operated front brakes were added and linked to the pedal which still operated the transmission brake.

Transmission brakes use drum brakes, rather than disc brakes, as they are intended as a static parking brake, rather than a high performance dynamic brake.
14.
The brakes acted on the rear wheels using a hand lever with the foot brake operating a transmission brake on the drive shaft behind the gearbox.
15.
There is a transmission brake fitted behind the gearbox operated by foot pedal and internal expanding drum brakes on the back axle operated by the handbrake lever.
16.
As the transmission brake is mounted inboard of the final drive and its reduction gearing, the brake rotates relatively faster, but with less torque, than a wheel brake.
17.
The Morris rod brake system, with the handbrake working on the transmission, was replaced a cable system with cross shaft coupled to the handbrake and the transmission brake deleted.
18.
Also removed was the central transmission brake, as the car now had conventional cord-actuated parking brakes, which was replaced by an extension housing to fit the shorter driveshaft of the GAZ-24.
19.
There is a transmission brake operating on a drum fitted behind the gearbox operated by foot pedal and internal expanding drum brakes on the back axle operated by the handbrake lever.
20.
When the car was in neutral, the middle pedal was used to engage reverse gear, and the right pedal operated the transmission brake there were no separate brakes on the wheels.
