I know alot about many things but ive not had a car trailer in many years, then to hook to the brakes I used a box that actually t`ed into a brake line and into the box inside then to the trailer brakes. Now I just got a new dual axle trailer with brakes on both axles and looking on ebay I find alot of these units.... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TEKONSHA-PRODIGY-TRAILER-BRAKE-CONTROL-1-4-AXLES-NIB_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ26455QQihZ007QQitemZ170031341219QQrdZ1 So does this unit just mount then goto the brakes as its got this dam Inertia-activated proportional braking. So whats up? Anyone?
thats new to me..... I've used electronic braking systems before on large trailers, (although never air brakes) but I've yet to see anything like that
to me, it looks just like the old ones, just with a couple added new technological features, such as a trailier disconnect warning...... personally, I'd just buy one of the old models, which is proven to be effective enough.
I think its saying it does not tie into the brake system but uses some internal Inertia-activated proportional braking. But im not sure, can I paste it any clearer?
I don't even know what that means.... which is why I'm saying that when you're fucked up, go with what you know.
