Adding Electric Brakes to a Mastertow 80THD Tow Dolly  

Published 10/05/2017



Question:

What complete list of items are required to add electric brakes to a Mastertow 80THD tow dolly? I already use it without brakes to tow a Honda CR-V behind our Tiffin 36LA motor coach but I want the added safety and legality of brakes. I have a Prodigy brake controller that I can move from another vehicle and the coach has a seven connector hitch recepticle and connection under the dash for the controller. Thanks

Brake Mounting Flange: Already Equipped

Brake Assembly: Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-35-SA (Self-Adjust)

or

Brake Assembly: Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # AKEBRK-35 (Manual-Adjust)
