Break away brake cable
Where do you hook your break away brake cable.
Do you hook to the hitch somewhere?
Do you hook to bed rail?
How far in do you hook it?

I bought one of those fastway, I think that's what they are called. It shows in my pic how I hook it up. It works great.No more getting caught.It cost like 14.00.Allworth wrote:

I use a "quick link" and it serves the additional protection of insuring that the safety latch is latched and will stay latched.Allworth wrote:
If the hitch flies out of the bed of the truck, you have worse problems than worrying about the breakaway.

That's where I connect mine too- We have ours hooked on to the side wall of the truck, it's high enough to keep it from getting into the hitch, but not mounted on the hitch.

Using a carabiner, I do the same thing. I also encased the cable in a length of split loom to prevent it from getting caught up under a rail, etc.gdweb wrote:

I connected my cable to the truck bed near the edge of the tailgate with a carabiner. Just make sure the cable can't get tangled up with anything during maneuvering.
MOST Important part in Red!!!
I will be relocating mine to a BETTER location, as I pulled the pin backing into a space.Old-Biscuit wrote:
