A system for determining brake wear based on hydraulic fluid volume may comprise a brake actuator and a fluid supply line fluidly coupled to the brake actuator. The brake actuator may include a brake ram configured to translate in response to changes in fluid pressure in the brake actuator. A piston may be fluidly coupled between a first portion of the fluid supply line and a second portion of the fluid supply line. The piston may include a cylinder and a ram configured to translate within the cylinder. A first sensor may be operably coupled to the piston.
