brake control nearly 40 years ago. The company is the leading manufacturer of brake controls. A proportional brake control allows you to stop your trailer in proportion to your tow vehicle, giving you the smoothest stop possible.

There are five proportional brake controls to fit your needs: The Voyager, the Primus IQ, the Prodigy P2, the P3 and the Prodigy RF.

Tekonsha is now introducing the ZCI (Zero Contact Interface). No more cutting and splicing of your vehicle's wiring; the ZCI uses sensors that simply snap around the wires with no direct contact to the electrical system. These sensors detect if an electrical current is present and engage the trailer lights.

Bonus features: Tekonsha also offers a full line of vehicle-specific, plug-and-play T-One Connectors. Engineered in the company’s Plymouth, Michigan, headquarters and manufactured in the company’s North American facility, this line of products gives you a simple plug-in option.

The Gooseneck Surge Hitch was designed to reduce the back-and-forth chucking felt when towing large horse trailers, especially over rough concrete highways. Installation is easy. Simply remove the stem from your trailer and replace it with a Gooseneck Surge Hitch. The hitch uses an air bag to reduce the impact of bumps in the road. The user can adjust the air pressure for the best results.

Drivers experience less chop and jerking, and their horse should also enjoy a smoother ride with less fatigue.

The Fuelbox has been designed and manufactured in California since 2004. All Fuelbox fuel-toolbox combos sit flush with the bed rails, and are DOT legal for diesel fuel in all 50 states.

One of the most popular Fuelbox designs is the FTC60. It offers the most fuel capacity for Ford and Chevrolet short-bed pickups and works in any long-bed pickup. It clears most gooseneck and fifth-wheel hitches. The FTC60 Fuelbox combo has a 57-gallon capacity fuel tank with the filler neck hidden inside the toolbox. The Fuelbox can be utilized two different ways: as an auxiliary tank that fills the pickup’s stock fuel tank with the Auto Fuel Controller system, or as a transfer tank to fill external vehicles with the transfer pump system.

The Fuelbox is constructed of .125 marine-grade aluminum with industrial-style stainless steel latches and lock assemblies and stainless steel hinge. The Fuelbox has a rain channel that assures a weather-tight seal, extra large reinforcing lid stiffener and fully baffled fuel tank, and the fuel tank is protected from the

bottom of the toolbox by a protective layer. Many different models are available, including finishes such as diamond plate, smooth and spray-on liner.

For more information, call 888-844-3044.Bonus features: The Auto Fuel

Controller reduces the need to stop frequently at fuel stations, allowing you to price-shop for fuel.
