I guess that this situation should then apply to the many cheap substandard "off shore" parts that we are slowly being forced to use due to attrition. Do we really need to worry this much?

Regarding stock or modified brakes, what is better, rear-ending someone in a panic stop because your stock brakes were barely sufficient, then being determined as responsible because the expert claimed you were following too close?
OR,
Having someone rear-end you because your coach stopped in time to avoid the car in front of you? Then having your damage claim refused because of evidence of modified brakes?

I'd take the second scenario because it provides better safety and in most situations the person who hits you will be at fault, so there would be no reason for an insurance adjuster to assess the safety equipment on your coach.

If the damages to my modified coach were sufficiently high, i'd contest a refused claim, if minimal, i'd probably just leave it be. In either case i'd be looking to change insurance providers.

Not so sure of changes to braking systems and are they legal. ...
but has anyone checked with their insurance carrier if they will cover a claim when safety parts that were originally engineered on the motorhome have been replaced with parts that were not certified. I guess my question is. ..... if I replace original parts with non engineered ones and I'm involved in a claim (my fault or not), will they cover my claim.
