I've been using a turbo mounted Pacbrake for a little over four years. It is a great addition - especially when towing.

Good lookn tractor there 730! Um i'm runnin the pac pxrb. Works great so far. Not a lick of problems. Although did have probs cause the intake horn from banks. Had to fab a bracket. But simple fix. Does save on the brakes even when not towin. If you have a 6spd you'll deffinetly like it. But may suggest the clutch switch if you decide this brake it still engages when you shift so you have double shift. Got the gear lever switch thats nice to. But love it.

Got my Pac Brake PXRB from Larry through this site, best price around. Most feel the Pac Brake is better than the Jacobs, I prefer mine to my friend's factory Jacobs, plus it uses a compressor and air tank which will come in handy for my air bags in the spring.

Pac Brake, but it quit working when the weather got cold. I've had it for about 3 weeks now.
