i'm getting ready to finish my install of my brakemaster system and have a ?
the last thing i have to to is make my air connection to the mh. is there an aux. port to attach to the brake air supply without the need to tee off an existing brake air line? this is a rr8r chassis. i would normally crawl around under the mh until i found it but its below zero up here this am. brrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!! trying to get reay for the sunny south and sure would like to have the toad brakes working. thanks! jim

I looked all over for an easy spot to tie-in, I ended up placing a tee on the brake line on the LH brake actuator canister. So far it seems to be working as advertised.

beaverjim....I know you were hoping for better news.....but I think "T" ing into one of the cans is the only way. It also give you the ability to plug the "T" if the toad air hose breaks. I installed mine and then proctected it with the corrugated plastic wire wrap for extra safety.

thanks don. thats a great idea on the corrugated wrap. i guess my biggest problem now is crawling under the rig when its 0 degrees. wow! jim
