Claim:
1. A visual brake stroke logging indicator comprising a logger housing connected to a vehicle braking system at a selected position, said logger housing having an exterior surface and an interior surface and a plurality of aligned holes extending through a thickness of said logger housing from said interior surface to said exterior surface of said logger housing; a moveable logger operatively connected to said logger housing which moves from a first, initial, brake-released position, to a moved brake-actuated position, by application of force from an attached brake pushrod and is releasably held in said moved position, by at least one of said plurality of aligned holes once the force from said brake pushrod has been removed, and wherein said visual brake stroke logging indicator further comprises: (i) a moveable indicator which moves with said brake pushrod; and (ii) stationary brake stroke limitation indicators which remain stationary, whereby the positions of both said moveable indicator and said moveable logger can be compared to said stationary brake stroke limitation indicators in order to determine if the vehicle braking system is operating within acceptable operating parameters.
