Flat tow brake systems are essential for safely towing your vehicle behind an RV. They ensure your towed vehicle's brakes are applied in sync with your RV, enhancing safety and control. Consider ease of installation, compatibility with your vehicle, and the system's reliability over long distances.
Installation can vary, but many find it straightforward with the right instructions and videos. Some systems are compact and fit out of the way, while others might require professional installation, especially if your vehicle has unique features like a deep floorboard or specific seat adjustments.
Ensure the system fits your vehicle's make and model. Some vehicles, like certain Jeep models, may have specific requirements or need additional components like a plate or adapter. Checking for these needs beforehand can save time and ensure a smooth installation.
Many users report reliable performance over thousands of miles. It's crucial to ensure the system is properly installed and maintained. Some systems may require monitoring or adjustments, like removing an inline fuse to prevent battery drain when not in use.
Common issues include difficulty in leveling the system, which can affect performance, and the need for constant monitoring. Some systems may also require custom solutions for unique vehicle setups, like creating a custom bracket if one isn't available.
Regular checks and tests are essential. Ensure all connections are secure and the system is level. Watching installation videos and following step-by-step guides can help ensure everything is set up correctly. If issues arise, consulting with the manufacturer or a professional can provide solutions.
