suggestions for 10,000 tow bar system
New to us 08 Bus... Going to tow a liberty at first, but might tow a f150 truck instead. Two questions... best tow bar for that weight? Blue Ox or Roadmaster? AND since we have air brakes on the DP...

AND since we have air brakes on the DP, would it be best to use that brake system?
Our local RV place wants us to purchase a 8000lb bar with a built in braking system.. Not sure it's big enough
Demco makes a 10K lb bar set... Demco
Not sure if you could use it with a Readybrake without sacrificing some strength, but you could check on it with NSA, the manufacture. This would make for a lot of simplicity and a good bang for the buck.
Most likely the complete 8000lb rated READYBRUTE/ELITE would do the job just fine though and probably what your shop is recommending. Seldom would you be pulling 10 or even 8000lb, unless you tried dragging the toad without it's wheels installed. Is your hitch receiver in fact rated for 10K lb.?
