Brake Controller
I know that this topic has been discussed.....
But, What is the Leading Trailer Brake Controller, and can you post pictures of where it you located it in your Truck.
Istallation, Hard, Easy, Get a Mech!!!!
Don't blow up the TIPM!
Other Factors that might apply.
Bumper Pull
Weight of Trailer, Unknown, (If that matters)
Thanks,
Stealth

I had a REESE in my 02 CTD. It worked good but when I bought the 05 CTD I upgraded to the PRODIGY. I am very happy with this unit. It's a set it and forget it unit. I mounted it on the dash bottom, right side. Didn't want it in the way of my clutch leg. Wiring is simple. Just match the wire colors on the controller to the wires on the plug that should have come with your truck and plug it into the receptical on the fuse block and you are done.

The best brake controller sure isn't a prodigy. It is a BRAKESMART, period. I installed mine on the right/lower side of the steering colmn. 2 screws. Plug and play on the rest. Sensor install wasn't bad either. Sorry no pics.

Thanks for all the Replies.
I have the Controller Harnes for the Truck.
I have an Older Never Installed Voyager XP Brake Controller (Tekonsha).
Has anyone used this specific type of controller? Any Issues?
Thanks

i have. if i were you, id shop around and get the new prodigy if your going to be towing frequently. i felt like i was always having to adjust the voyager and never really had it dialed in where i wanted it. you can pick a prodigy up fairly reasonable off places like ebay.
