I just bought a vehicle small enough for me to consider to be towed . 2007 Jeep Wrangler 2 door.
I p/u a blue ox alpha tow bar used. I also found the correct blue ox base plate on Craig list in Florida being shipped .
My question is brakes there are lots of different brakes out there including a surge brake on your tow bar with a cable pulling on your toad brake pedal ?? I know a lot of you do tow so is there a better type than others ? If most of you use Brake buddy or the blue ox are used ones safe? Do they need a lot of maint. seals ,air motors Ect.
I"m planning a trip back up to AK for 2011 if at all possible.I did not feel safe without a toad in tow for a 6 month trip. I don't feel my gas bill will go up to much with a small toad or at least hoping.
Wishing All a Merry Christmas
Thanks
