Some of you installed the Pac Brake yourself ?? Was this difficult? A local shop quoted me $650 labor charge and I don't know if it's worth this much to have it done. I'm not helpless or clueless when it comes to mechanical and electrical issues and may just do it myself. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
I did install mine myself but was 10 years younger and had access to a friend's shop with a good lift. Would not want to do it without the lift myself. Took about 6 hours if I recall correctly working by myself. Not difficult at all.

I installed a Pacbrake on my 2004.5 Dodge 3500 48RE auto about 2 years ago and absolutely love it. They make a specific version for the (pre-2006) auto which includes a trans controller that handles the lockup. It works great. There's also a toggle switch with LED that lets you turn the EB off and tells you when the TC is locked when it's turned on. I leave mine turned on all the time.
Coming down the Sherwin Grade (a 20 mile 6 percent grade on CA395) used to fry my brakes by the time I reached the bottom. With the Pacbrake, I don't even have to touch the brake to maintain a comfortable speed. In fact, I have to speed up occasionally. I won't ever tow heavy again without an EB.
