Abstract
An engine brake rocker arm assembly for a valvetrain and operable in an engine drive mode and an engine braking mode. The assembly is configured to selectively open one of first and second exhaust valves in the engine braking mode and includes a brake rocker arm configured to rotate about a rocker shaft, and an engine brake capsule assembly movable between (i) a locked position configured to perform an engine braking operation, and (ii) an unlocked position that does not perform the engine braking operation. A lash setting tool is configured to removably engage the engine brake capsule assembly and move the engine brake capsule to the locked position to enable mechanical lash adjustment while the brake rocker arm is assembled in a valvetrain and the engine brake capsule is assembled in the brake rocker arm.
