Mike Diesel Posted February 11, 2021 Report Share Posted February 11, 2021 Has anyone used the Demco Stay and Play DUO braking system for a Diesel Pusher with air brakes? Service department says it compatible with air brakes but some reviews suggest it is not for diesel rigs. Appreciate any insights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray,IN Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 Demco's website states it is for hydraulic braked motorhome.They don't mention air brakes so by exclusion I think it's safe to assume NO it is not for air braked MH. Many of us with diesel pushers use the M&G Engineering braking system for the towed vehicle. It is a one-time setup at installation, from then on the only connection is a 1/8" air line from MH to towed vehicle.

harley-dave Posted February 12, 2021 Report Share Posted February 12, 2021 We use a stay-n-play on our 31' class C and toad. Not sure why it wouldn't work as it connects to the the RV lighting system and battery charge line only. Uses the stop light light on-off and vehicle deceleration to determine when and how much to apply the toad brakes. We like ours and it has been in service 3 years now with no problems. Talk to the manufacturer about it. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently using AirForce One. Had a shop install coach part, installed Jeep part myself. Relatively easy install on Jeep.
