Well Pete
You don't say what kind of coach/model/year/gas/diesel/engine etc. The reason I ask for that info is, there's supplemental braking for your Jeep that is primarily is designed to be used with Diesel coaches with air brake systems. One in particular is called the M & G Braking system. It is by far, the easiest to setup and one very important point/benefit is, IT DOES NOT PUSH ON THE JEEPS BRAKE PEDAL!! It's mounted between the power brake unit and the master cylinder. Therefore, no brake lights are triggered with the M & G unit.
The really nice benefit of that is, since there's no brake lights triggered, you can use the plug and play Hopkins harness for wiring your Jeeps tail lights for toad lights. I know, I just did it yesterday for our '15 JKUR Jeep. With the M & G braking system, all there is between the toad and the coach is a short, curly Que air line with a female at one end and a male at the other, DONE!
There is no lifing of any heavy "Robot" out of your toad and storing it some place and, re-inserting it, each time you want to hook up and travel. A One pound air line is all you'll attach between the coach and Jeep.
This all pre-supposing you MAY have a diesel. If not, well, you'll have to with another choice. Many use the Ready Brake due to it also is a permanent install, no robots to lift in and out of the toad.
