I have a 2004 Adam two horse bumper pull trailer. It is a double axle trailer. What type of tekonsha controller do I need?

The controller is good for up to 3 axles and electric brakes only so the 90160 would work just fine for you.

You can really use any brake controller you want for a two axle trailer. Some of them just perform better than others. In my opinion, this inertia based model (90610) is the best brake controller I have ever owned. It is very smooth appiying the trailer brakes, the adjustments are really easy, and the price is good. It also works properly when backing and parking - I found some other controllers will get "confused" and lock the brakes. My brother got the more expensive model that works the exact same way. It just has a large fancy LCD dispay, and the settings seemed more complicated to adjust when we are switching trailers. You can really use any brake controller you want for a two axle trailer.

I pull a double axle pleasure boat that weights about 6,000 pounds boat and trailer. I purchased the tenkonsha primus IQ box and have nothing bad to say about it. It gets the job done great for me

I've been very happy with the Primus IQ. As long as you have electric brakes in good working order, this unit should be able to do the job. I have to admit that this is my only experience with electric brakes. All my previous experience has been with no brakes on the trailer or surge brakes.

I'm no authority on this matter, but from my research the 90160 Primus IQ electronic brake controller works perfectly with my 6500 lbs trailer RV towed with a Dodge Ram 1500 4.7 liter engine.

It was easy to install on my Silverado. Consult Reese for proper unit for your vehicle. The controller works great.

This Primus™ IQ Electronic Brake Control, for 1 to 3 Axle Trailers, should work on any vehicle you will just need to wire it correctly. The Prodigy website should have information on the readymade wire harnesses. http://www.etrailer.com/tv-install-brake-controller-2011-toyota-rav4-90885.aspx

If the vehicle came from the factory with the optional trailer hitch already installed then you should have an adapter and wiring diagram that was provided with the vehicle that you can use that will wire directly up to this controller. Otherwise, etrailer.com would be your best bet to get the correct installation information using 2014 as your vehicle year.

I would think so. We bought it to pull our 28 foot camper that weighs ~5,000# dual axle. There also may be a # you can call directly.We actually you tubed this system before we bought it. So maybe try that too.Hope I was somewhat helpful.

Go to the Tekonshia web site to confirm the correct plug in cable for your F350. I would order the controller and plug and play cable separate.My F150 has the towing package, you'll want to verify your truck has the towing package, if not you'll have to splice in the controller cable.

I installed this on my 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche 2LT which already came equipped with a receiver and wiring. There are a few YouTube videos and forums that include detailed write ups regarding trailer brake controller installation. Just follow them for your vehicle and use the appropriate wires per the unit's wiring diagram. I didn't use the harness and had this installed in ~ 30 minutes. So far, I've had this unit installed since 2012 and it works great with my 18 foot car hauler. No issues stopping even when fully loaded.

If you do your homework by checking your vehicle year and make at the Tekonsha web site aquire the part number, then go to Amazon and look it up. I did this very same process and it truly was plug and go, works great and took less than 5 minutes to install.

I pull a 20' camper with my 2012 Tacoma. The trailer weighs approx. 3500 lbs. The controller provides smooth reliable breaking. It is also easy to adjust. I highly recommend it.

There is no need for a separate controller because this truck comes with a very good controller. all you will need is a reed hard pack battery for it. I hope this helps.

My only information is the description provided to Amazon by the seller. It appears it s the 3020-P that I used in my 2004 Dakota. If you are still unsure, I suggest you contact the seller or Tekonsha's technical support.

I just found a video showing how to hook up the Tekonsha P3 in a 2008 Silverado at etrailer.com. Yours would be similar (http://www.etrailer.com/Brake-Controller/GMC/Sierra/2008/90195.html?vehicleid=2008106213)

It should work, but check for the trailer connector on the driver side sidewall and if you have it make sure you order the unit with the Toyota plug. You can also check compatibility on the Tekonsha website.

I have a newer tandem axle trailer with torsion suspension and it works great. I did have to get the black one because my trailer has 15" wheels

I installed mine on a Nissan Titan with the included pigtail (that attaches directly to a connector that was dangling under the dash). I had already been towing the trailer (with lights, but without brake control) prior to installation. The controller just controls the brakes. The brake lights are controlled though your normal trailer light plug. If you have a flat trailer plug then you would need separate wiring for the brakes. Most trucks come with the round trailer connector, and that is all you need for both lights and brakes (as long as it has the metal circle in the middle).

Sorry not an expert on all models, but the Tekonsha 3040 2-Plug Brake Control Wiring Adapter worked fine when installing a Tekonsha P-3 brake controller on my 2005 Toyota Sequoia. I was very pleased with this set up while hauling my camper through the mountains out west last summer. Note: It took a while for me to find the pre-wired trailer brake hook-up which was wrapped up with tape near the parking brake under instrument panel.

I know that a dual axle trailer will be much harder to turn than a single axle from past experiences with them.As far as the Trailer Valet is concerned,I don't see why it wouldn't work,but you will have difficulty making sharp turns.If you are going in a straight line or in a gradual turn you should be o.k.
