Aux braking systems are required by state law. We use the Blue Ox Patriot system.
For the brake lights/turn signals I purchased a hotchkis plug and play cable. Then made my own cable between the MH and Jeep.
While I hook/unhook the towbar DW gets the Jeep in neutral and installs the aux brake system. Then we review what the other has done.
Other choices on the aux brake system are permanent mounts. Our friends use one that has a vacuum pump for the power brakes and a cable.
Since we use the Jeep a little more off road then they do; our preference was not to cut into the vacuum system or run a cable through the fire wall.
Price systems on Amazon and E-trailer and you most likely get the lowest price for DIY.
