SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Braking System Installation - 2014 Ford Focus- Video
Speaker 1: Today in our 2014 Ford Focus, we're going to be installing the Stay and Play Duo Supplemental Braking System, part number SM99251. To help maximize the safety when driving down the road flat towing your Focus, a braking system can be installed, which will allow it to break proportionally with your RV. There's a cylinder located on your brake pedal that's permanently installed, so the system is ready to go whenever you're ready to hook up and take off. The cylinder will actuate the brake pedal, applying the brake proportionally while pulling the vehicle down the road. So the harder you break inside your RV, the faster you're going and the more that momentum is transferred, it'll apply the brake harder on your brake pedal. What's great about this is it's going to make it easier to drive your RV. more
