Default Re: Trailer Brakes

That was my first thought Hal, perhaps the person that only got 6,000 miles on a set of brakes frequently drives over/through mountain ranges. On another note, as I have a boat and trailer that doesn't have brakes, and will be getting my brake control installed shortly. I'm under the impression the brake control should be set *slightly* higher so the trailer does more of the braking than the tow vehicle. That's what I've heard anyway, does this sound right? Or was this one of the issues that kept coming up? The reason I've been told is so it doesn't "jacknife" if you brake hard.........
