RVi Braking System Experience?
Permalink  

Hi All 

Anybody using or know anything about these Toad braking systems?

http://www.rvibrake.com/RVibrake2-p/abs-12011.htm

 

I have just started towing a Suzuki Alto with w "Ready Brute tow system with overide braking but find the Suzuki is not heavy enough at 800 KG to make the overide work.Putting nikko on the suzy disc to check.I have contacted Ready brute without any success so looking for an alternate braking system

A lot of money and I would suggest that some people would be inclined to "overbrake" the Suzi ie set the brakes too high,,, it could be hard to get the right balance.

I would find out why the brakes you have are not to your satisfaction,,, is their a fault or is the current system not compatible with 800kg load.

We have one of these installed in our 2 door Susi GV

Seems to work well and also includes a charging circuit to keep the battery charged in the toad.

cheers
