Ryno12 Posted August 14, Donstar Posted August 14, If you want a aftermarket on the dash like the integrated here is a thread with some different ones thread with some ideas for you on location and controller options. Also trucks that come without the integrated are supposed to come with the pigtail to wire an aftermarket up so no need to spend 20 bucks on one.

Qualitechcomputer Posted January 8, Posted January 8, Imcrazy Posted January 8, Posted February 7, Looks like it can be done now. I'll be trying this out in a month or two. Posted March 10, Like everyone else I found out the hard way the automated trailer brake system will not work. The secondary shoe is attached to the parking brake lever by a U-shaped clip; remove this clip.

Clean the hardware and backing plate with brake parts cleaner, and let it dry completely. From here on, pay attention to cleanliness. Avoid contaminating the shoes with dirt and grease, which can cause groaning and shudder of the brakes. Lubricate the contact points, the three raised areas on each side of the backing plate, with brake grease. Begin installing the new secondary shoe, the longer of the two shoes. It goes on the side of the assembly closest to the rear of the vehicle.

Attach the shoe to the parking brake lever, then attach it to the backing plate with a hold-down spring. Install the primary shoe to the backing plate with a hold-down spring. Make sure both shoes are positioned on the contact points of the backing plate and lined up on the anchor pin. Install the parking brake spreader bar, self-adjuster cable and return springs. The parking brake spreader goes between the two shoes, at the top, and attaches the primary shoe to the parking brake lever.

We mounted the trailer brake controller in the change pocket under the radio. Since this is a time-delay unit, we could mount it anywhere, even upside down. Once the harness is connected to the unit, the ignition was turned on and the system was checked.

Pressing the stop button causes the reader to quickly jump up to 99, which is full application. Pressing the brake pedal causes the display to read up to the max gain, which is adjustable by using the two arrow buttons on the left.

Out back we needed to mount a 7-pin trailer plug connector. We could have mounted this under the truck with a bracket, but we chose to cut a hole in the bumper for a more factory-looking install. This takes some time, so be patient. Next, the exterior plug was centered and squared to the vehicle, and we pre-drilled the four mounting holes and then used stainless-steel screws to secure the plug to the bumper.

The result is a factory-looking installation with proper trailer brake controls. We tested the system hauling a foot Pace American enclosed trailer loaded with a 4,pound car. With the trailer brakes now functioning like they should, the truck is much better at slowing and stopping. In a heavy crosswind, the enclosed trailer was getting pushed around, which before would have been a bit scary. With the trailer brakes, we were able to tap the actuator button and bring the trailer back in line without issue.

If you are going to haul a trailer on a regular basis, you need a proper brake controller. Want to know more about towing? Here are 11 trailer towing tips to keep you safe on the road. Know How. A life-long gearhead, Jefferson Bryant spends more time in the shop than anywhere else.
