..You posted on my other thread, where I have a very similar dilemma - Already own Readybrake, really want to use it on our 2nd toad, but RV dealer says no can do (as I said in that thread, I don't believe him, haha).
Here's what I'm going to (and am doing) now: I'm taking the DVD, and documentation/instructions that came with Readybrake. Going to give it to Ford dealer as well as a few other reputable repair shops I know, see if any of them are willing to install it. Like already said, it does NOT have to be an 'official' Readybrake authorized shop. ANY good mechanic should be able to do it (although I'd prefer one that knows the particular vehicle well, hence the reason I'm going to try the Ford dealer first).
Since it would cost me over $1000 to get another brake system, even if I have to pay for several hours of a mechanic's labor to install Readybrake, I'm still ahead of the game.
