Correct me if I'm wrong....

The old systems were plumbed into the vehicle brake lines...


But the new electronic systems ARE NOT plumbed into the system. They operate electronically and don't require the plumbing...in my opinion work as good or better than the old systems...

Recommended that the brake question be posted in a new thread, in the correct area of the forum. (This section is For Sale ads)

On my 1993 Regency the trailer brakes are completely independent of the coach brakes. They are connected via the trailer plug and the control on the dash and I can set the brake pressure by the knob. It gets its signal from a connection to the brake pedal and you just set it up so it does not grab suddenly. It's the same system in my Ford F-150.
