Exhaust Brakes
I'm new to this forum so I have a great deal of learning to do. Actually, I'm new to any forum. Never been on one. Anyway, I have a 2007 Dodge 2500 quad cab, automatic transmission, shortbed pickup with a 5.9L Cummins. It's my second diesel. First one was a 2006 Ford F-250 with the 6.0L diesel. I'll take the Cummins any day. I just bought a pretty good sized 5th wheel camper and the truck pulls it just fine. Loaded, it'll probably come in at a bit over 10,000 lbs. However, I'm considering putting exhaust brakes on it and would like advice on what type to put on. At this point, I'm leaning toward the Pac Brake kit but the Banks system sounds good as well. Any advice would be appreciated.

Any exhaust brake will make you smile every time you slow down or stop with the RV in tow. I had a BD brake on my '98 and started with a Jacobs on my '06. When the vacuum pump quit I replaced it with a Pac. My wife gets tired of hearing me say "God I love my brake" nearly every time it engages.
I don't know about the Banks but the PacBrake is top notch.
