I urge you not to get the P3... the regular Prodigy will be far better worth your money. It does nothing more than the regular, except it has more options for hydrolic brakes. If you are towing so much that you need helper springs, its time to upgrade... seriously, if its too heavy for that, its too heavy for the truck.

A 15yo towing a trailer and being distracted enough while adjusting brakes is very irresponsible... hope you were in your own field with nothing to hit. HUGE risk on your part, and very irresponcible.

Always glad to help and the Prodigy is great! As for helper springs, color me cluless. Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?
