So to anybody that can help me it would be great

Silly question maybe but why.
Unless you are towing lots of heavy stuff.

Yeah I'm also interested in your reasons for wanting the brake..........I drive trucks all the time and yes they are the best invention ever..

Not sure if its worth the money though for a 4wd......

Of course you can always do it yourself cause all you need is a solenoid and a butterfly in the exhaust........they are not complicated to make a bodgey one and it will still work.......i think anyway, never tried it myself.......

Have you got a price yet.......???

sounds like a good idea.
