Which transbrake does everybody recommend for my 4000 lb pickup?

I use a Select Performance Pro brake, Give them a call 1 888 55 SELECT, They can set you up.

Floyd, are you using a PG or a Turbo 3 speed? ....Tom

Sorry about that, turbo 400, reverse manual valve body, Precision air shifter, 4500 A-1 convertor 4:30 rear gears.
Thanks

Talked to Leo Glasbrenner at Remac and he said TCI was a good unit, and since he's putting it together, that's what I bought.
Thanks

The TCI is good for .5 tree. .....I've used quite a few of them. .....For a .4 tree there is no brake better than the Griner unit. ....Even for non .4 tree the shift quality and consistancy is, in my opinion, unsurpassed. ....Tom

Thanks Tom. I run brackets on a 5/10 tree and am going to super street and d/gas this year. I figured there wa no way I could do any good foot braking.
