Title: yeah i know but another one !!
Post by: Kidsanall on November 16, 2010, 06:54:54 PM
G'day all,

Les from Bunbury WA recently ordered a new camper (Box'n'dice) which we should pick up within the week, VERY much looking forward to getting the family out there. Currently have a 2003 Pajero to pull it round with but looking to change soon. Looking at Electric brake controllers at moment, any suggestions re brands etc?? many thanks.

G'day & Welcome.

On brake controllers, Tenkosha P3 (http://www.tekonsha.com/product/accessory.asp?cat=1435&path=1435&titulo=Proportional%20Controllers&#P3%C2%AE) or Redarc (http://redarc.com.au/products-and-services/trailer-brake-products/eb-series-trailer-brake-controller/remote-mount-electric-trailer-brake-controller). Lots of folks on here have the P3. The Redarc is good for mounting options.

What vehicle are you changing to? Pajero not doing the job?

Thanks for the photo of your new camper.  Looks great.  Looking forward to seeing it all set up.
How soon before you get a chance to use it?

The Paj ia great vehicle but a couple of quirks that all lol, we have 4 kids hence all seats are being used. we usually have 3 (girls) in the middle and 1 (boy) in the rear and would prefer a split rear seat .... with the rear seat in can hardly go shopping with all the kids need to spread all bags around !! with a split rear seat we would have more floor space in the car for things like a fridge etc and thinking of a diesel too, its the 3.5 V6. Plus would like slightly bigger for kids to grow with considering i want to mod the vehicle too. But great to drive and more than capable to do what we want with it. Hoping to put CT up mostly in next couple of days to get a feel for it and do a couple of weekender trips soon to sort all our requirements.
