Steve,
Back in '41 about the best they had was water on the brakes. A big tank behind the cab and lines running to a cab mounted valve and then to the drums. As you mentioned Jakes were not even on the horizon. I'm not sure when they were invented but in the late '50's/early 60's is about where I think is the time frame when they started being used.
