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.

Not true again. It depends on the state and it depends on the weight of the toad.
Not to say it isn't a good idea to have one; but don't confuse "should" with "shall".
