An air brake slack adjustment tool for measuring and adjusting the clearance of brake rods of an air brake assembly so that the air brakes are set within specifications for consistent braking operation includes an elongated handle portion, a base portion integral with the handle portion, a pair of lateral rests extending from the base portion for supporting and encompassing a portion of the slack adjuster during air brake adjustment, and an arm having a hook portion that hooks around the slack adjuster to obtain leverage for retracting the slack adjuster to measure piston rod clearance and then making the required brake adjustment by turning an adjustment nut on the slack adjuster.
