In Reply to: surge brakes??? posted by dave2 on July 13, 2011 at 05:06:17:
About the only surge brakes around in Ohio belong to u-hall trailer rental so they do not have to huck up a brake controler to every vehical they rent a trailer for. I have electric brakes all around on camper and implement trailer but I think it is 2,500 pounds empty till you have to have them. What surge brages that were around you had to before you could back up get out of the vehical and go back to the trailer hitch and install a pin so that you could back up without then locking sollid as soon as you put the tow unit in reverce and start to move as the brakes think you are trying to stop and the harder you try to push the harder they will lock up. John Deere years ago built there service trailers like that, friend has one. Never had a u-haull trailer but think you still have to lock them out to back up. A very big safty problem as if you would haven't got stoped quite in time at a intersection and you had to quickley back up to keep from getting hit you could not do it. Have heard that some west coast states will not alow surge brakes at anytime on some of the mountain roads, never been there so I cannot verify.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
