: Need replacement towing brake module Pony Driver 03-02-2004, 08:06 PM i have an '01 D/A 2500HD CC SB that i bought to pull an 18" stock trailer...it has all i need, EXCEPT the previous owner took out the brake module under the dash... any advice regarding a good replacement module to buy wud be VERY much appreciated... thanks... biglakedmax 03-02-2004, 10:41 PM I am way pleased with my Tekonsha Prodigy. Easy set up and smooth, strong braking. Jordan Ultima owners swear by theirs, too. Prodigy utilizes electronic decelerometer to activate brakes proportionately to rate of deceleration of tow vehicle. Jordan uses cable connected to brake pedal - the more the cable is pulled, the more it applies the trailer brakes. Both controllers have very loyal owners so I don't think you can go wrong with either one. Good Luck! Don 4x4man 03-03-2004, 09:13 AM Very happy with my Prodigy towing our 10k 5er!!

Dmax Tim 03-03-2004, 01:01 PM I've got 3 hayes controllers and they work good. I wouldn't worry about brakes on an 18" trailer http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif maynard9089 03-03-2004, 05:59 PM Another vote for the Prodigy. john@dps 03-03-2004, 06:33 PM with out a doubt, prodigy. i have owned more than i can remember, and the prodigy is real nice and smooth. dont forget to buy the quick connect to plug it into your truck. john 02 3500 cc lb 4x4 lt 38' prowler quad slides 14100lb's loaded Majuba Max 03-03-2004, 07:36 PM any controller on a 18ft will do but if you want the best for more wieght get a prod Aggie91 03-03-2004, 07:54 PM I agree with the votes on the prodigy. I pull horse/stock trailers & equipment trailers quite a bit. I have used the Hays in the past & I think the prodigy has a lot smoother braking application no matter how much weight you are pulling. I also highly endorse the idea of getting the quick connect for our trucks. It is WELL worth the mony. For installation instructions, there are many posts on this site & they are what I used to "assist" when I installed mine. It's a very good controler! DavesDmax 03-04-2004, 08:17 PM Prodigy is what I use. The rig stops the same with or without the trailer attached.

John R 03-04-2004, 10:48 PM I'll vote for the Prodigy also, there is no controller I know of that's easier to install and set up. MrFreeze 03-04-2004, 10:57 PM I hate to sound like a broken record, but Prodigy gets my vote also. | ||
