Question:

Ive got an M105A2 military trailer I want to convert to EOH, and am looking at the HS281-9066. Ill pull it with a 2015 F150 Platinum, which has the factory integrated break controller. Will that work wired up to the actuator? My truck is listed in the application chart as YES, but I noticed there is an interface box option HBA-CAM for Ford and Chevy Break Controllers. Do I need that? Also, does this kit come with the hydrolic wiring, fluid and a battery? Thanks!

Expert Reply:

The integrated brake controllers in the 2015 Ford trucks like your F-150 are compatible with the electric over hydraulic actuators like the Hydrastar # HS381-9066 you referenced so it would work fine and not require any additional adapters. This kit however does not come with brake lines and everything needed to install. For that you'd need the part # HBA-10-252-82 instead which does come with that and everything else needed. See attached review video link for more info on this kit.
