Auto stop installer HotSprings AR ?

Does anyone know of a Blue Ox auto stop installer in the Hot Springs/Little Rock AR area. I have a Fiat 500.

  • Crain RV Supercenter in Little Rock is listed by Blue Ox as a dealer. But then you probably already knew that. Whether they are any good and whether they've ever installed an Auto Stop in a car, I don't know. It is not rocket science but you do want someone who can follow relatively simple directions. Once installed, cable length adjustment will be trial and error. If anyone in your area installs ReadiBrake, it's the same process.

    I had mine done at Blue Ox in Pender, NE. I towed mine about half the summer, maybe 6-7000 miles, before stopping at BO for the install. Had zero problem towing sans any toad brakes during that time and much of the towing was western mountain towing - just ran a cable between the MH & toad to resemble a braking system to the casual observer. If you're not comfortable locally, you could tow sans brake to Pender as your first trip of the season. BO has a very nice on site campground.
