Direct link Brake Controller setup

[MoneyMakeranch]

     I Just finished the installation of my Jackalopee and Direct Link controller on my 780 and everything is working fine 🙂.   just wandering what trailer brake settings others are using on their Rigs?  My trailer is 18000# fully loaded triple axle Toy Hauler.   The default setting is at +3 Factory and mine feels good at +10 right now and a setup for a large trailer and +5 holding power at a stop.  just curious as to what other are running as a brake setting on their rigs to see if its all working the way it supposed to.

Thanks Money Maker

Our trailer is 26K+ and we originally set it up on large trailer #8.  Saw some pretty quick brake pad wear on our disc brakes, so backed it off to #5 and I feel that's about correct for us.

Ours is set on large trailer and at 20 and I can’t feel the trailer tugging and only registers about 46%when stopping. When we are stopped it’s at 20%.  I always thought it should feel different set that high. We are close to 28000 lbs trailer

So if a person had a trailer built on axleless suspensions and air brakes behind a HDT

you could kneel it on the ground and drive in and out the garage under the rear lounge, or store more stuff 

Air suspension allows over inflation to raise the trailer for low speed off road clearance

Air brakes on normal axles would be nice
