I have dual axle electric brakes. Seems there are more brands than you can count. What are you guys using? 65 Belvedere II Station Wagon 69 Coronet R/T convertible 70 GTX 70'cuda 99 Dodge Diesel dually 4X4

A lot of guys I know are talking about the P4, but it has more features than I would need. http://www.homeof12volt.com/shop/?page=shop/popup&product_id=215&print=1 Join the Penguin Liberation Front!!
