I put reaction arms (I floated the brake backing plates, once a biker always a biker
))on both the coaches I've kept and driven. Doing this let the
coaches stop much better before rear wheel lockup occurs. In the Southeast, I see no need for rear disks. Their benefit is basically that they don't
fade as quickly as drums. Neither Monteagle nor Culowee, the two mountains I often cross, result in the rears fading, so I'll save the money. I
haven't flat spotted a tire since. If/when I progress to a heavier toad I will have to get some sort of braking system for it. Does anybody make a
towbar with surge brakes?

I forgive them all, save those who hurt the dogs. They must answer to me in hell
