This tow bar has been discontinued and replaced with the Ready Brute Elite 2.



More than just a towbar, the ReadyBrute™ Elite combines our high-quality aluminum towbar with our revolutionary ReadyBrake™ supplemental surge tow braking system. The ReadyBrake is made of steel to insert into your RV receiver and everything is powder coated for extra durability. With 8,000 pounds of towing capacity, this towbar will work well with most towable vehicles from the smallest compact car to a full-size truck. The Ready Brute Elite is equipped with non-binding latches and it's a breeze to hook and unhook, even on uneven surfaces. Also, since the clevis connectors can rotate and swivel, you'll find this tow bar is even easier to unhook than other non-binding tow bars. Rubber boots cover the towbar leg extensions to keep out dirt for a bind-free operation and when you are finished towing just fold the legs up then latch them to stow on your Motorhome receiver. Both the ReadyBrake and the ReadyBrute are covered by our Limited Lifetime Warranty.



  • The Ready Brute Elite Tow Bar:8,000 pound towing capacity
  • Aluminum construction– Weighs only 40 pounds
  • Receiver mounted– Easy to fold and store on the back of the RV
  • Non-binding latches for easy disconnect on uneven surfaces
  • Tow bar comes fully integrated with our Ready Brake auxiliary braking system
  • AluminumClevis connectors included– Hooks up seamlessly to Blue Ox, Roadmaster or Demco baseplates
  • DL-300 Dash Monitor System included
  • Safety cables included
  • Install instructions included



Note: We've found that other online sellers do not include the baseplate clevis with the purchase of the Ready Brute Elite. This part is essential for hooking up the tow bar to your baseplate. Just tell us which baseplate you are using and we'll send you the appropriate clevis.

Highly Recommended add-on product: Our Ready Stop breakaway protection– This will stop the toad in a breakaway event and is needed to tow legally in many States and Canada.


*If you have a specialized baseplate contact us (we see this mostly with modified Jeep's). We can make a custom clevis to fit your setup at our factory for an additional $60-$150 depending on complexity.


Vehicle note: For the Ford C-Max hybrid Energi you must pull fuse #9 to disconnect the vacuum pump. In testing, this fixes this car's problem and makes it towable with the Ready Brake.

How The Integrated Ready Brake Works:

When you brake while towing a vehicle behind an RV, stopping distance is increased due to the weight of the vehicle and it's momentum pushing against the RV.  The ReadyBrake uses this energy to compress a shock and spring inside it which allows an actuator arm to move forward, pulling down your towed vehicle brake pedal with an attached cable.  It takes a few hundred pounds of pressure to activate the ReadyBrake, so the towed vehicle will follow the RV down a steep mountain grade only applying brakes when you do.  After initial install, only an adjustable sling cable is used to connect or disconnect the ReadyBrake.  We recommend leaving about 2 inches of slack in the adjustable sling cable to keep the brake from activating while going over dips like at a gas station.  When the RV comes to a complete stop the ReadyBrake actuator arm stays in the forward position continuing to hold the towed vehicle brake pedal down until the RV moves forward a couple of inches to disengage it.  Use of the ReadyBrake can decrease stopping distance by upwards of 30%.
Choose a set of included clevis connectors to attach your Ready Brute tow bar to your towed vehicle base plate.  We offer clevis connectors to attach to any Blue Ox, Demco or Roadmaster brand base plates.  We can also make custom clevis connectors for other base plate brands or even steel bumpers that have D-Ring connectors.  If you choose custom clevis connectors please email us dimensions and pictures or a drawing of what you want to connect to.
