Took alittle under 2 hours to finish up the install in my '95 Ram. It was just after midnight so the trailer testing will happen tommorrow. Decided to mount it on the right side of the steering wheel this time, so the gf doesn't mistake it for the parking brake lever like she did the last one. :laughing:

Anyways, here's a few pictures-

Nifty. I've got a Prodigy, but did think about springing for a Jordan.

The only thing that would concern me about your installation is that the cable isn't exiting the outer sheath quite straight:)

Kinked cables, and having an angle here seems to be the most common complaint about Jordans I've heard.

Thanks for pointing out the misaligned cable. Corrected it today. :)

First impressions- All the hype is true. This controller is awesome. Watching output amps on the display rise and fall in relation to how far/fast the pedal is be pressed, is too cool. Hit the brakes hard and fast- the trailer brakes hard and fast. Apply them soft and slow- the trailer brakes soft and slow. Miles and miles and miles beyond the ancient Tekonsha this replaced. :smokin:
