Product Description
The BD DIESEL 1027145AP Exhaust Brake is engineered for the 2003–2007 Ford 6.0L Power Stroke equipped with an automatic transmission and delivers powerful retarding performance when towing or descending steep grades. This air actuated, remote mount exhaust brake system includes an onboard air compressor and trans pressure module to reliably control the exhaust butterfly valve and maximize engine braking without reducing vehicle speed manually.
Designed around rugged cast-iron components and BD’s exclusive Variable Orifice Technology, this exhaust brake creates significant backpressure throughout the RPM range to improve deceleration control and reduce wear on service brakes. The kit includes all necessary hoses, brackets, air compressor, pressure module, and mounting hardware for a complete installation on compatible vehicles.
