Brakes for CRV Toad

[George Lowry]

Hi Phil,

I have used a Brakemaster on the previous toad which ties into the air
brakes of the coach and it worked well. The wife didn't like it
because it did require the installation of the actuating cylinder each
time. On the newer coach, we decided to change toads also and, to
please the wife, we got the unified tow brake from US Gear. It is
permanently installed and is hidden from view. Only connections are
through the six conductor cord that provides the power for the lights
and the cable for the breakaway. That cable is the only added
connection. We have been quite pleased with it. Bought it online
from an outfit in MO, I believe it was rvexit.com. They had the best
price...
