I made my own air brake system for less than $50. I put a T on one of the tag's air chamber (did not cut the 1/2 air line) and ran a small 3/16" air line to a quick connect at the back of the MH. Even if this line breaks, it will not loose enough air to affect the MH's braking... especially coming from the tag. Using a 1 1/4" diameter air cylinder you do not need a pressure reducer. I use a 1/4" rope to attach it to the brake pedal so it hangs down just below the bottom of the pedal. I put the conduit over the large screw to hold it in place. Takes less than 30 seconds to put on. You might want to click on "How I tow" below for my break away braking.
