Is the Factory Brake Controller on 2017 Ford F-250 Compatible with Electric Over Hydraulic Brakes
Question:
I have a 2017 F250 Super Duty diesel. It has the factory tow package installed. Does the controller installed in dash work with any electric over hydraulic disc brake kits. I am wanting to upgrade my camper brakes to disc brakes and do not want to have to add anything else to cab of truck. Thanks

I took a look at the online owner's manual for your 2017 Ford F-250 Diesel and it does state that the integrated trailer brake controller is compatible with electric-over-hydraulic brake assemblies. You should not need to add any additional parts or adapters to the truck for the controller to work well with this braking system.
I have attached an article on installing electric-over-hydraulic brake assemblies to a trailer that you might also find helpful. This article details all the parts you will need as well as the installation steps.
