Why would you want a system to "break" your nice Jeep.
A supplemental "braking" system is highly recommended though. There are many systems falling into two basic categories. Portable ( Brake Buddy, etc.) and permanent (SMI, etc.). Either type "uses" your Jeep's brakes by activating the brake pedal of the Jeep in response to application of the MH's brakes. I have an SMI system installed in my Jeep Wrangler. A flip of a switch in the Jeep and I'm ready to go (or stop
).
IMHO, you definitely need a supplemental brake system towing a relatively heavy vehicle like your Grand Cherokee.
