Narrative:
Just prior to ILS approach; we had a malfunction of the primary brakes; nose wheel steering; and antiskid. After running checklists and talking with company; we elected to declare an emergency just to be on the safe side although we never suspected it would be other than a normal landing; but then would need to be towed to the gate. The landing was uneventful and plane was safely stopped and shutdown on the runway prior to towing.
