Braking when over weight
Hey guy's. I posted a couple other threads here about weights and most responses were of the mind set that yes im over weight but it looks like you should be ok. Sooo how will this affect my breaking?...

I can tell you from personal experience using the factory controller towing my 33k combined before the flash I had to hit the brakes HARD this is with the RV brakes working at no more than 50% and my pedal setting on the floor the trucks brakes are NOT designed to safely stop much more than the 16k I mentioned.
It was NOT a good experience.
I have seen a very improved braking dynamic after adding disc brakes on our 5th wheel.
I agree there is nothing better than disks on RV's. My current DRV has disk brakes that work very well now that my factory controller has had a flash.
X3. I will not have a heavy 5er without discs again. The difference truly is night and day.
And my 2013 Ram BC has worked awesome from day 1! :B
