Brake system for 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Getting ready to purchase a permanently mounted brake system for my 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Wondering what system you would suggest. Also, anyone have a system on their own Jeep Grand Cherokee? Thanks.

What kind of tow bars do you have? We have the ready elite tow bars with integrated mechanical brake. Nothing to install in the car and not invasive to electronics.
The Ready Brute Elite does require the installation of a cable from the brake lever on the tow bar to the brake pedal on the vehicle, but other than that it's a great system: we use it on our 2020 Jeep Gladiator and our 2022 Jeep Wrangler.
2X on the Ready Brute Elite.
It's a simple system that works. If you're handy, there's some excellent videos to help with installation and on the Roadmaster wiring (with diodes) on the Grand Cherokee. You'll have to take the front fascia of the GC off for the installation. Kinda scary at first especially since it was only months old when I did it. I drilled holes through the brake petal to connect the cables and feel it's a good way to do it.way2roll wrote:

- We had a Brake Buddy for our old 2001 Grand Cherokee, still using it for our 2018 Wrangler. Not a permanent mount but reusable with a new dinghy.
