Is the Titan BrakeRite Adapter Required with the Integrated Brake Controller of a 2014 Ford F150

Question

Question:

Hi, I just ordered a trailer with the Titan BrakeRite electric over hydraulic system. I will be towing with a 2014 Ford F150 with the integrated brake controller. Is this compatible or do I need the GM/Ford adapter? I am seeing some places where it says the adapter is needed for all GM/Ford vehicles 2006 and newer, some places say 2006-2012 only. Are the 2013 and new F150 controllers compatible without the adapter? Thanks!

According to Titan, the EHB Adapter, part # T4845900 is NOT necessary with a Titan Brakerite like part # T4813102 if your OE brake controller has an electric over hydraulic mode. If it does, simply switch it to EOH mode. If it only has the electric mode, the adapter WILL be needed.

From the info we have from Titan the 2013 and up integrated Ford controllers don't need the adapter.

Hey David, from previous customers of ours who have the same 2020 Keystone Raptor 424 we have determined that your pin box style is the Lippert 1621 which means for a Gen-Y gooseneck adapter you'd want the #GY58GR that you referenced.

The ALKO 4,400 lb axles use the same bearing sizes as the standard 3,500 lb alxes. If you want USA made bearings, I recommend the Bearing Kit #TMK52VR. This kit comes with the Timken brand bearings which are all made here in the USA.
