Recommended Supplemental Braking System For Flat Towing A 1986 Jeep CJ-7
Question:
What supplemental braking system do you recommend in a 1986 cj7 towed behind a truck camper?
asked by: Andrew A
Expert Reply:
For your 1986 Jeep CJ-7 I recommend the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System - Proportional # BLU37TR. You will need to install a 12v outlet like # RM-9332 to power this system. This proportional system provides precise, responsive braking for your Jeep and responds to the deceleration of your truck to activate the Jeep's brake pedal with matching intensity.
The remote controller with LED display lets you monitor the braking system from your truck cab. It lets you activate the towed car's brakes in an emergency situation or to correct sway and alerts you if the towed vehicle becomes detached.
