Auxiliary Braking System

[44FREDDIE]

Looking to see if anyone installed a Demco SBS Stay in play brake system. Looking at putting one on a 2021 Jl Wrangler. Easy to install? Any other recommendations?

I have one in my 2018. I wouldn't say the install was easy. The only good place I could find for the big box with the vacuum pump was under the driver's seat. The check valve is a bit of a problem on these kits. Sometimes it doesn't seem to work and the vacuum pump just keeps running. There was enough vacuum hose with the kit to get it through the firewall and to the booster though. Mounting the controller in the footwell wasn't that easy either. I did find a good aluminum structural piece to mount it to but getting to it with a drill wasn't easy.

Honestly if I was doing it again, I'd probably get one of those self-contained box things.
