Is the Blue Ox Track Pro Compatible with Electric Trailer Brakes
Question:
I was looking at the Blue Ox TrackPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control - 7-Hole Shank - 6K GTW, 600 lbs TWItem # BLU36FR. I noticed it was compatible with surge brakes but did not mention electric brakes. Please explain the details involving brake compatibility. Is this system compatible with electric brakes? If not, what 300-600 lb tongue systems are compatible with electric brakes?

Expert Reply:
The Blue Ox Track Pro # BLU36FR is fully compatible with your electric brakes. The compatibility is really just down to certain weight distribution systems not being recommended for use with hydraulic surge brakes; but all weight distribution systems will be compatible with electric brakes, so you're good to choose whichever system you like The Track Pro just happens to be one that is compatible with both, so we noted that in the product description.
The Track Pro system comes with the head assembly, adjustable shank, hitch ball, spring bars, sway control L-brackets, lift lever, pin and clip, and all necessary hardware to install this system.
