I'm in my winter quarters in Florida so I will not be going anywhere for a few months. But we did hook it up and drive around, mostly to make sure everything worked correctly (apparently Fords can be a little tricky because of the way their trailer braking software is programmed).
BUT - I did a few easy stops and then a few more harder stops and the braking got better with each stop - was much better by the last one. I was using the manual control to stop and even just going 25 mph it would stop RIGHT NOW. I can tell that it's already way better then the drums.
The installer told me it's possible to lock them up on dry pavement and I may want to back off the gain in the rain.
Can't wait to find a mountain road to go down.
