How to Measure to Determine the Size Trailer Brakes Needed For Hydraulic Drum Replacement  

Hey Erik, so if the coupler on your 2007 MasterCraft boat trailer is labeled a UFP or a Dexter actuator and looks like the #DX99FR then yes this inner member is correct replacement to get it working again. There isn't a way to look up what…

You will need to do some measuring to determine if the 10 Inch Electric Brake Assembly LH, item #AKEBRK-35L, is the correct assembly for your trailer. Measure the diameter of the mounted brake shoe, the width of the lining and the distance between…
