Pulsar, what a great service you have provided for those looking for brake systems. Wish this was available last year when I was researching a brake system to use in my toad.
One comment on US Gear installations, your quote: "A pulley is attached to the inside firewall. A solenoid is mounted inside the toad."
Per the US Gear installation instructions, http://www.usgear.com/utb_install.htm that pulley is mounted inside the toad under the brake pedal. If you look at the instructions it states that it is important that the pulley is installed at a 90 degree angle to get the max. pull. Then later in the instructions it states that if the pulley hits the brake pedal when it is depressed move it to the left or right so that it does not obstruct the pedal?
One of the reasons I decided against the US Gear was that I was very uncomfortable with a pulley installed under the brake pedal.
