Abstract
A braking system for a final drive for a wheel assembly of an independently powered wheeled vehicle. The system includes a service brake having a displaceable element actuatable to retard rotation of the individual wheel assembly. A park brake is positioned closely adjacent to the service brake and is actuatable independently of the service brake to displace the displaceable element to retard rotation of the wheel. Both the service brake and park brake are accessible without disturbing an electric motor with which they are associated.
