Question:
My favorite brake controller is the Reese Echelon which seems to be discontinued. I have one in another truck but I want to keep all of the wiring in that truck so I can just move the controller to which ever truck I want to use. I have a 97 Chevy K3500. So I will have to hard wire it in. Do you have the pig tail and mounting bracket for it?

Hi Jeff,
I’d be happy to help you get set up with the right parts. Yes, the Echelon is discontinued so finding the right parts for it can be a little tricky. We have a bracket that I believe will work for you—the Replacement Mounting Bracket for Tekonsha Voyager Brake Controller # 2178. I've attached an image with the dimensions so you can compare it to your existing setup.
For the pigtail, you’ll need the Pigtail Wiring Harness # 7894, which is 34" long and compatible with Tekonsha, Draw-Tite, and Reese brake controllers.
Let me know if the bracket’s measurements work for your setup. If they’re significantly different, please share your measurements so I can try to find one that will better suit your needs.

Hey Jeff, did the bracket and pigtail end up fitting your Echelon setup on the Chevy? Your update could make it easier for others trying to reuse that controller on different trucks.
