Readybrake Customer Testimonials

"I had a ReadyBrake Braking System installed by R.V. Specialist in Augusta, Kansas before we made a big trip through several states and Canada. I would highly recommend the ReadyBrake System to anyone wanting a braking system for their towed vehicle."

I travel around 20,000 miles per year to art shows around the county. I own a motor home and tow a 1995 Dodge Caravan. I make my living as an artist, but like most RV'ers, I like to tinker with products for my RV.

In 1998, I purchased and Auto Stop from Blue Ox. My initial impression was that it had a lot of moving parts: cables, pulleys, etc. I installed the unit my self and it seemed to work well.

After towing my van about 10 months, I saw a ReadyBrake made right down the street from me. The ReadyBrake engineer's have designed a unit that is simple, costs less to produce thus has a lower purchase price than the Auto Stop. I always say "K.I.S.S" (Keep it simple sweety!)

In 1999 I purchase a ReadyBrake and sold my Auto Stop, which by then had worn the cables severely and needed replaced. I installed the ReadyBrake and have had no problems with the unit. It stops better and has a shock absorber built into the unit for smoother braking. I have used the ReadyBrake for two years, (40,000 towing miles) with no problems.

I recommend that anyone who runs a ReadyBrake (or any auxiliary braking system) purchase a Dash Light Indicator from Night Shift Auto. This will enable you to know when your brakes on the towed vehicle are on or off. When I was in Arizona, I went from Tucson to Globe. The roads in between have some pretty steep hills, probably about 8% grade and the ReadyBrake worked great!

I have only good things to say about this product. Lucky for me it's made in my home town, Iola, Kansas. USA, of course!

I installed the brake system myself. It was fairly easy no problems. Anybody with a little experience working on autos can put it on. It works great. Easy to hook up. Thank you for a good product.

Only problem I had was when I hooked it up I didn't lock my tow bar out. The cable stayed real tight. Also I put a block with a counter bar for a positive stop on the end of the cable when I took the tow bar off and let the cable hang free, it got caught kept the brake on. No problem now after I locked the tow bar out and adjusted the cable. It is perfect. I like the looks of this better than the auto shop. On this you can always change the cable.
