Supplemental Braking System Recommendation for a 2007 Class A Towing a 2010 Jeep Unlimited Wrangler
Question:
I have a 2007 Class A Surfside motorhome by National. I will be towing a 2010 Jeep Unlimited Wrangler. I would like to know what braking system will be the best to purchase and also the simplest to install each time to the tow vehicle.

Expert Reply:
I would recommend a portable system that provides proportional braking for the 2010 Jeep Unlimited Wrangler. Unlike the Roadmaster BrakeMaster systems, a portable system can be installed without the aid of a professional an eliminates the need to tie into the motor home braking system.
The Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Proportional Braking System, item # RM-9400, is an excellent system. Your Wrangler will also require a stop light switch, item # RM-751451, to be installed. Your vehicle also requires an Automatic Battery Disconnect, item # RM-766, to keep that battery from draining while towing.
If you decide to have the Roadmaster BrakeMaster with BrakeAway for Motorhomes with Air or Air Over Hydraulic Brakes, item # RM-9160, installed on your motor home you will need the stop light switch and the automatic battery disconnect mentioned before and a Seat Adaptor Kit, item # RM-88130, for your 2010 Wrangler. We recommend that this braking system be installed by a qualified installer with experience with these systems. Once initially installed this system is very simple to remove and re-install.
