    So that’s how they do it hey. Both are on the one side and a extended bracket. Thanks for the pics! Appreciate it. I’ll get to work on possibly fabricating a bracket as it’s prob hard to find those parts now

    What about just deleting the trailer brake bar altogether. It’s useless to me anyways

    Do you run in snow/ice? Does your ABS work? Trailer brakes can save your ### in a jacknife

    I’ll never need them and never have so I think I’m just gonna cap the lines and get rid of that Handle. One less handle and problem solved

    Locking up your trailer brakes without touching your truck brakes will pull your trailer back in behind you in case of a jackknife (on ice or snow, don'tknow about dry ground). So, IMO, a trailer brake valve is important
