Hello Thomas,

Happy to get the right brake controller set-up for your 2006 Toyota Tundra. I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller w/ Custom Harness - Dash Knob - Up to 2 Axles - Proportional # RED82CR. Since your Tundra has the factory tow package, the # RED82CR comes with the vehicle specific pigtail for a much easier install. I really like how the knob installs on your dash, nice to have it at hands reach if an emergency situation were to happen so you can easily hit that manual override.

If you are looking to do some off roading fun in your Tundra, then you will want the go with the Redarc Tow-Pro Trail Brake Controller w/ Custom Harness - Dash Knob - Off-Road Mode - Up to 3 Axles # RED74UR (also comes with pigtail).

If you have an empty spot on your dash, make sure to grab a Mounting Panel for Redarc Tow-Pro Trailer Brake Controller Control Knob # 331-TPSI-007.

What kind or trailer are you going to be towing with your Tundra?
