SMI Supplemental Braking System for an RV with Hydraulic Brakes
Question:
for the air force one braking system, does that require air brakes on the motorhome, or can it be adapted for regular hydraulic brakes? 2004 southwind 32foot is the motorhome in question. thanks

Expert Reply:
The SMI Air Force One Supplemental Braking System # SM99243 is for a motorhome with air brakes to power the brakes on a vehicle being flat towed.
Instead use the SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO # SM99251 for an RV that has hydraulic brakes. This applies the brakes of the vehicle being towed using the motorhome's brake light circuit.
