Hey Joe, yes you can install an aftermarket brake controller in your 2024 Ford F-450 to bypass your OEM controller. For that I would recommend the Redarc Tow Pro Link part # RED57AR which installs very easily by plugging inline with the 7-way at the rear of your truck and then syncs to the included remote. This means you don't have to mess with any OEM wiring or any complicated installs at all. Are you having issues with the OEM controller?
