Jacobs E brake Cost

[EEisner]

First post for new member... just ordered 04. 5 3500 a couple days ago and was all set to include the Dodge/Jacobs E brake..... until dealer wanted $1650 to install. I do a lot of hauling in my nursery business, so I'd really like to add on my new truck but thinking this price is high? What have other dealers been charging? Thanks!

Suggets you check with PDR on a Pac Brake. You do not need a vacuum pump for them. Lot less hassle to install

So far the e-brake is only approved for the six-speed manual transmission. Since you have a business you will want to check into the, "On the Job Incentive" program. This will allow you a $500 incentive allowance toward the Jacobs e-brake. Ask your dealer for the, "On the Job" borchure.

Paid $700 for an unused Jake from a forum classified. Thank you Jesus



Now that I'm use to it hooked to ECM instead of hardwiired like my 02 (knothead dealer install ) I am impressed on how well it handles Teton Pass's 10% grade and corners
