Title: NSA Ready Brake breakaway system
Post by: dsd on March 10, 2020, 09:50:24 pm
I hooked up a NSA ready brake emergency breakaway system on my Toad today. It seems to be a fairly straightforward system. Has anyone seen these in a actual event? Did they perform as advertised. Just curious?

Can't find a thing on the net as per seeing them in action.  For me. The biggest issue was the double firewall where the cable passed through on our Subaru. I had to make darn sure it was sealed up very well to prevent water from getting trapped between the two panels.

I have only used the emergency Breakaway. Will be building my own air brake conversion, but that's a later discussion. Just was looking for anyone that had seen just the emergency breakaway function real life. I had looked for it also and didn't find any info. . I'm confident it will work, just curious . Installation took a couple of hours and seemed straightforward.
