| Maybe. Thats why I said use a light foot. You will get more pressure to rear axles sooner. In the link it talks about cutting rear axle pressure, for a 75% front and 25% rear application, but that ratio diminishes with more application pressure. So with a heavy gooseneck trailer, it might be advantageous to have normal breaking action.
We use to run a '72 GM Astro for our farm truck. It didn't even have brakes on the steer axle. I doubt it even had a proportioning valve. It stopped just fine. We even pulled a livestock trailer with it some, not a big one, but it still stopped just fine. And the trailer didn't have any brakes either. That is kind of what makes me think that normal braking action would be better in said situation. | |
