Happy New Year All.
I have a 99 CRV that I pull behind my Dolphin DP, Elandan, and 95 F-150.
Of the three it's the F-150 that is pushed the most of course.
I am leaning towards a surge setup for simplicity. My tow bar is a Blue Ox.
I am also curious if the ABS works in the CVR w/the switch on ACCY when towing..the radio sure does because I ran the battery down.
Could I put a true fluid system tee'd in to the CRV's brakes...or should I scrap that idea?
 
I love my US Gear Brake, all internal, nothing to set up once installed. Very good response and is adjusted from a small external device attached in the bottom face of my dash, tells me its functioning and I can adjust from 1-10. 10% increments. With my new Jacobs exhaust brake, I'm confident that together with my F-150 hydraulic 15" disk brakes on this 94 Oshkosh chassis, the coach will both slow down on downgrades and stop us on the level. It is presently set on 5.

I've only been on one long down hill grade, TX Canyon E->W on I-10 in E AZ, to experience it all working together. I  think there are grades like on I-17 and I-5 & 8 that may require a higher setting.
