Re: whats a good brake controller
I went WAY retro.
Kelsey-Hayes hydraulic controller.
New old stock off Ebay.
Made in 1986, new in box.
Weatherhead 7921 brass tee from NAPA plumbed the hydraulic line right into my 2006 F 450 that didn't have ITBC.
Works with elec/hydraulic brakes, directly proportional to pedal apply pressure, no delay, no funky tell-tale nagging me when the ground via my ball is momentarily disrupted by hitting certain bumps, adjustable easily without looking at any display.
These work while ABS is engaged, no ill effects.
Whatever the scare was that obsoleted these old style units was BS as as far as my multiple thousands of miles of use has shown.
I guess that a worn out unit does leak brake fluid inside vehicle is the only negative I can find.
What does surprise me is that no one has come out with a Brakesmart or Maxbrake type device with an external pressure transducer that simply clamps onto a brake line for the pressure input for the electronic pressure proportional type system.
Clamp on pressure transducers are reliable and have been around for ages.
