Literally days after bringing home Arctic Fox 27-5L, I had IS and brakes installed.
While it's not inexpensive, I LOVE the IS. Even the truck rides smoother. I had almost 1,000 miles towing the trailer with factory suspension. So, did have some tow experience with the rig, and it bounced around about what I expected. Afterwards, holy cow, trailer's not bouncing around anymore, even drove from MI to FL with a potted plant on the table, it was right where we left it. Biggest shock to me was the impact to the truck, it doesn't chuck or bounce.
Disc brakes, well lets just say I'm going to have a chat with MorRyde. I thought brake activation is a bit slow. Once pressure got built up, brakes were quite effective. It really came to a head on the way home, stopping by to visit a friend for a few days in TN. Wife was driving, and a young lady turned right in front of us and wife stood on the brakes. Several moments later, trailer finally started slowing the rig down, and literally stopped us inches away from a very wide eyed young lady. My friend and I bled the brakes. Two lines had what he characterized as a lot of air. I was energizing the pump, and the sound difference between starting bleed and after completing was significant. Could literally hear the pressure slowly building. Now it's almost instantaneous. Looking forward to finishing the drive home with brakes that will quickly build pressure.
