Hi Harold!
The Blue Ox Patriot Portable Flat Tow Brake System - Proportional # BLU37TR is Blue Ox's part number BRK2022. This is the latest iteration of the Patriot braking system. This one is significantly lighter than the previous BRK2019 (# BLU37TR is 6 pounds and the BRK2019 was 15 pounds) and is also quite a bit smaller (# BLU37TR is 8" Long x 7.5" Wide x 11.5" Tall and the BRK2019 was 15.5" Long x 9" Wide x 12" Tall). It was portable before, but now it's even more so!
Where you thinking about getting this for your flat towing set up? If so, what vehicle are you wanting to use it in?
