Ready Brute 2 - 8,000 LB. Aluminum RV Tow Bar Kit (no braking system)
This is the Ready Brute 2 package and does not come with a brake. Our Ready Brute Elite II is the right choice for most applications.

We bundle all the vehicle-specific parts you'll need (Baseplate, light wiring) with our best-in-class aluminum tow bar. Our goal is to send you everything you need to tow a vehicle safely, legally, and easily for one low price.

This package includes:
- The Ready Brute II Tow Bar (8,000 lb capacity, non-binding, easy hookup)
- Blue Ox Baseplate and clevises
- Our Break Away kit (This will stop the tow car in an accident or breakaway situation)
- Universal Tail Light Wiring
- New for 2025- Our braking system is now even easier to install! Drilling a small hole in the firewall is no longer necessary.
- Our Ready Brake turnbuckle for even simpler hook-up
- Steal Clevis connectors included
- DL-100 Monitor System
- A cover for the tow bar and a tote bag
- Safety cables
FOR ROADMASTER BASEPLATES ONLY: THE "DIRECT CONNECT" STYLE BASEPLATE IS HIGHLY PREFERRED OVER THE "CROSSBAR-STYLE". IT IS RARE, BUT IF A DIRECT CONNECT STYLE BASEPLATE IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR YOUR VEHICLE YOU WILL NEED TO PURCHASE A ROADMASTER CROSSBAR ASSEMBLY WHICH IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE PRICE OF THE PACKAGE.
IN SOME CASES WE CAN HOOK OUR TOW BAR TO TOW-GRADE AFTERMARKET BUMPERS BUT THEY WILL NEED A SPECIAL CLEVIS AND YOU'LL NEED TO CALL US SO WE CAN GET MEASUREMENTS AND GET YOU A QUOTE.
IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A BASEPLATE GIVE US A CALL AND WE CAN QUOTE YOU A COMPLETE PACKAGE WITHOUT A NEW BASEPLATE.
THE "CLEVISES" ARE THE ENDS OF THE TOW BAR THAT HOOK UP TO THE BASEPLATE YOU ARE USING. OTHER ONLINE SELLERS DO NOT INCLUDE THIS CRITICAL COMPONENT THAT YOU WILL NEED TO USE THE TOW BAR. LET US GET IT RIGHT FOR YOU THE FIRST TIME AND GET YOUR TOW BAR SYSTEM STRAIGHT FROM THE FACTORY!
Please add your tow vehicle details to the order notes and one of our towing experts will reach out to you by phone or email before shipping your order. This way we can make 100% sure we send you the correct vehicle-specific parts.

Recently bought a Ready Brute elite towbar with safety cables, break away kit and accessories. Great people, great products! Very helpful staff, and very nice manufactured towbar. I installed the brake cable and other accessories on a jeep jk 2015 Wrangler, hooked it up to the Ready Brute Elite and it works like a charm! Not sure why anyone would want to mess with any other braking system, this thing is awesome! Thanks for a great product!

I purchase a NSA Brute 12 years ago and are about to move it to our 3rd coach. It has given us perfect service. We had a small problem with a piece and I contacted NSA and they sent out a new part no questions. In getting ready to move to the next coach this fall I notice the side and shock was not working I contacted NSA told them of my problem and offered to buy the parts. They ask me to ship the unit to them and they rebuilt and updated my unit at no cost. When they say Life Time Guarantee they mean it. I would like to thank the people at NSA for their great product and great service. I would like thank specially Nick.

Product quality is excellent, and apparent immediately upon opening the box. Also, I chose to work directly with the company, and they were great. I had a unique situation where I couldn't use the company mount on my Jeep (due to having a plow mount already), so I provided dimensions for my Jeep's D-rings (see attached picture) and the company made a custom fit mount. If I recall correctly, I don't think there was even an extra cost for customizing the mount. I didn't really have any problems, but I know the company would have been super supportive if I had needed anything. The connection system is very well designed, and easy to align. My sixteen year old son typically does the connection both ways 100% himself. After it is connected, there is a connection for the lighting, one to activate the brakes, and one as a safety that will lock the tow vehicle's brake if it someone got loose. Last year was the first towing our Jeep Unlimited. We towed from CT to the rockies, spent two months cruising around the Rocky Mountains, and then towed back from UT to CT again. We've been doing these trips for five years now, but this is the first time we towed a vehicle -- it was a massive improvement for the trip. I definitely recommend based on quality, connection design, and company support.

I had mine coming on ten years and as you described simple, effective, & safe yet cost effective. No external power, vacuum or air pressure required for normal operation. Just connect the cable from the bar to the toad and your brake ready to head out. And don't for get to buy a break away kit.

Fantastic to deal with, I bought a tow bar kit. Everything I needed came as a package for self install. Just went on my first ever trip towing a vehicle behind our motorhome and it went flawlessly.

Very heavy duty and love the built in brake. Use it to tow a Honda CRV and a Nissan Frontier.
