Final answer:

Only Statements B and C about the trailer cam brake are true. Statement A is incorrect as the trailer cam brake has a camshaft chamber bracket. Statement B is correct, indicating the cam brake spider can be welded to the axle, and C accurately describes the bushing setup.

Step-by-step explanation:

The trailer cam brake is a component of a trailer's braking system. Assessing the provided statements:

  • Statement A is incorrect because the trailer cam brake does indeed have a camshaft chamber bracket which is part of its assembly.
  • Statement B is true; the cam brake spider can be welded to the trailer axle, which is a common practice.
  • Statement C describes a typical bushing setup on a trailer cam brake, with bushings at each end, one bolted to the spider and the other to a bracket on the trailer axle.

Therefore, the true statement about the trailer cam brake is Statement B and Statement C.
