I keep coming back to look at this. Is this like a substitute for the brake controller’s like the Tekonsha Prodigy? What I want to do is use my Jeep to pull our teardrop RV. The teardrop is 1875lb dry weight, so it will topple 2000lb loaded and I want to be safe

This is a surge brake system for a towed vehicle,it has a cable that goes to the Jeep’s brake and when the rv stops the Jeep stops,I think you need to have trailer brakes installed on the teardrop

Thanks for the clarification. The teardrop has trailer brakes, but I don’t have a brake controller installed in the Jeep. The install of a controller is a PITA for me, so I haven’t done it, yet. I was hoping this might mitigate the need. Thank you

You could switch out the brakes on the trailer to hydraulic vs electric (easy backing plate change) and buy a surge brake tongue coupler...That's how most boat trailers do it. But it will be easier, cheaper, and better to just install the brake controller on the TJ.

Is there any mechanical arena you don’t know stuff about? I think this will be a winter project.
