AW Direct HD Front Tow Optimum Kit

A step up from the Standard HD front tow kit is AW Direct's Optimum front tow kit for heavy-duty trucks. Like the Standard series kit, the Optimum kit includes the Quick Connect air coupler kit to supply air to brake and suspension components as well as the SafeAll Brake Assist to help with braking while going down the road. This tow kit also features a pair of tie-down straps to secure the front axle to the underlift and a cam-style steering wheel lock to prevent the front wheels from shifting while under tow. Lastly, unlike the Standard kit, the Optimum kit includes the Miller short tapered axle fork set with a 2" wide opening to help get under front axles with low-clearance obstructions. See below for kit components and individual part numbers.

Kit Includes:

(1) AW Direct Quick Connect Air Coupler Kit - #ZAW-ACK
Utilize this quick air coupler kit from AW Direct to supply air to disabled trucks or buses in preparation for proper and safe towing. This 7-piece kit allows for applications on many different truck makes and models giving you the tools you need to get the job done efficiently. This tow coupler kit also eliminates the need to seek out air supply tanks under the vehicle. It comes with a handy storage box along with a complete part listing for easy individual tool identification and replacement. This coupler kit comes complete with the following items.

(1) Miller Short Tapered Axle Fork Set- 2" Wide Opening - #124004454
These Axle Forks from Miller Industries have a 2" wide opening. This new design features a shorter and tapered front lead fork to more easily get under a front axle eliminating the need for a double pick. It also has a tighter distance between the forks to grab the axle. The extra width reduces side-to-side movement and will fit most heavy steer axles. These forks are sold as a pair.

(1) B/A Cam Steering Wheel Lock - #8-34CH
Prevent the front wheels of a towed vehicle from turning while towing from the rear with this steering wheel lock from BA Products. The strap is equipped with two coated claw hooks to latch onto the steering wheel and the brake pedal. A cam lock cinches the two ends tight.

(1) SafeAll Remote Brake Assist - #BB100
Preserve your brakes, improve your stopping distance and maintain safety while towing heavy-duty trucks with the SafeAll Remote Brake Assist, formerly known as the Brake-Buddy. Secured inside the cab of the disabled vehicle, this supplemental brake actuator works in tandem with the tow truck and helps keep you in compliance with federal law. Powder-coated safety orange for easy identification, the brake actuator is connected to the brake pedal and is secured by claws to the steering wheel. A separate steering wheel lock is also required to prevent the steering wheel from turning and dislodging the actuator under tow.
