I let a friend use my truck to haul his trailer with my Maxbrake installed. Now he said he must have one. But we are unable to find one . seems Maxbrake and brakesmart have goon out of business. just the time there is a great electric break controller on the market and now they are gone. Now what does he use. He just bought a new tundra trd and towrs and equipment trailer at 9k every day. I don`t have a clue what to tell him to buy. All advice appreciated !

 

I kinda like the prodigy myself

 

techonsha don't know the spelling but they seem to work just fine, I tow a 36 ft 5th wheel and have never had a problem.

 

I have one of the inertia controllers called a Curt Reflex (http://www.curtmfg.com/part/51130). Works fantastic, you can set it in a second or two for a loaded trailer or empty trailer so no more trailer tire flat spots! Handles up to 4 axles of electric brake units. Changes the amount of braking when you're going uphill or downhill automatically.
Simple wire-up and easily mounted. I tow a 40' three-axle 5th wheel enclosed car trailer that runs about 9000# empty. We're about 21K# fully loaded for a race weekend.
The mfg wants like $200 for it but you can find it online for half that if you look. I think I got mine off e-bay for $80.

 

Me TOOOO. I have had one for 5 yr it's been on 3 trucks and still good. It auto adjust for empty trailers takes about 5 min to set has three boost settings for heavier trailers.

 

Prodigy p3 all digital works great life time warranty with the mfg tekonsha they will take good care of you. Don't go with the cheaper models the p3 is worth it

 

the maxbrake makes the above look like unsafe junk toys that they are. smartbrake is the one no longer made, not as many dealers for the maxbrake, do a search and get a dealers list.
