Default Talk to me about the"Jake brake" for my 06

http://www.mopar2u.com/diexbrjbr.html

Is this a good price on the 'Jake brake" for my 2006 Dodge3500 ?
If i buy it from Mopar and have my dealership install it ,my truck warranty should be still good ?
How does itinstall on the truck.I know the "Jake brake ison my exhaust ,but is there a switch in the cab you turn on & off.

What does it all come with......Any one have it on their 06-3500, did you install it your self.

I am seriously thinking about getting 1 on my truck.

You've seen the price, but have you checked out the dealership's labor cost yet? Might want to look at the total price before making a decision.

Have you ruled out the Pac-Brake, which is basically the same thing.?

I wish that the dealership would try top void my warranty based on my Pac-Brake.

I can see it now.........Come buy from "BigRiver Dodge, the dealership that never screws you around!"

The shark attorneys would love that one!
