BD Exhaust Brake - Diesel Forum

wildbyon · 03-24-2008, 12:30 PM

I just had a BD exhaust brake installed and have been playing around with it a little bit. I haven't tested it yet with my travel trailer and in the mountains, which is the main purpose for installing it. The brake seems to drop out/shut off at between 25-30 mph as the truck slows. Can this be set lower, say to 15-20 mph? Many of the steep swithbacks in Colorado, where the brake will be used, require this slow speed.

Do you have an auto tranny? If so, it is probably in the TC lock up program. Give BD a call. I am sure that they will get you on the right track. I have had mine for over 6 years and wouldn't be without it.
