    Can we talk Electric Brake controllers?

    I'd appreciate some help here for a dumby. I picked up my trailer yesterday and although empty at 4290 plus my truck stopping is marginally ok under normal conditions once I start to carry a load near my GVW of 10k I feel the brakes on the trailer will make it a safer excursion(s). 1) What...

    On my 01 today and so far quite impressed. I had Rancho 5000's on there previous and they were starting to give up at about 50k. I've been very hesitant to go Bilsteins for fear of a harsh ride. My only experience was on lighter vehicles I will say. But to be honest with this Dually it...
