Mikestock,
Well, you've been given a few choices here. After using the Ready Brake for a few years and, basically liking it, I decided I'd check out the M & G Braking system. Without a doubt, it by far is seriously easy to install in the toad. And, it's equally easy to install in the coach side too. The instructions are plain and simple to follow and, if there's any doubt or, issue or, questions, the company is right there to answer any.
The install on the toad side took me about an hour and, on the coach side about 1/2 an hour. It is a totally progressive and proportional braking system. And, the really, REALLY good part is, there's no intrusion inside the toad. You see no parts, no robots pushing on the brake pedal, no air cylinders, no cables, nothing. You don't have to lift a robot into the floor of the toad, setup the clamping mechanism on the brake pedal or anything like that.
In fact, the only connection between the coach and the toad is, a spring loaded air line. You have quick release fittings on both ends. It takes all of about 5 seconds to hook both ends up and, YOU'RE DONE.
Another really good and, important point of this system is, since it does NOT PUSH ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, it does not ACTIVATE the toads brake lights via the toads brake pedal brake light switch. That's really important if you're intending on using the toads tail lights as toad lights.
And, since you're a "DIY" type, you can install this in a short amount of time. Below are a couple of pics of the unit and, the installation of the two components of the system. The toads actuator and, the coaches air line connections. Plus the fitting on the front of the toad, (in our case, a 2011 GMC Sierra 1500 Extended Cab 4x4) and, the quick release air fitting on the back of the coach, just to the left of the receiver.
