Anyone installed a brake controller on there 67-72?? I’ve only done this on newer trucks. I think its going to be a little different. Any pointers, tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated. Even if you ave pics maybe!! Thanks guys.

Re: trailer needs to be slowed!!

Nothing different about it. Run a 12v source back to the trailer plug, and the rest is all basic trailer wiring. I always run my 12v source through a 30amp breaker/fuse just in case.
