Had to send the first kit back because the flares were mostly junk. Second kit was much better. We used most of it, but the screws broke so we got others from Lowes. The clamps were plastic which I didn't care for so I got plastic coated metal ones from NAPA. The hoses and fittings were decent. And some of the fittings were not readily available. So all in all, I'd buy it again.

This has plenty of extra tubing for my 30 foot triple axle trailer. I cut off the excess on all the lines and had the ends re flared. The brass and copper may have some corrosion issues if not managed when attaching to galvanized metal.

See what our Experts say about this Hydrastar Accessories and Parts
- Availability of Brake Line Kit for 3 Axle Hydro-Disc TrailerI'd be happy to help you find the right brake lines to fix up your triple axle trailer. I've included a link to our brake line kits, but if you could find the fitting types you need and let me know that would help me find a kit or put one together for your trailer's needs.
view full answer... - Is There Advantage to Using Hard Brake Lines or Flexible Brake Lines on TrailerThere really isn't an advantage to using hard brake lines over flexible ones. It really comes down to whichever will be easier for you to install. I would recommend the flexible brake line kit part # HS496-252 as it will be easier to install. While they lines are flexible they do not bulge or expand from brake pressure. This brake line setup would work really well with the Hydrastar actuator # HBA16 you mentioned as well as the Kodiak disc brake conversion kit you are going with.
view full answer... - Recommended Brake Line Kit For Triple Axle Boat Trailer With Dexter BrakeRite II Disc ActuatorI recommend using either the 15' Main Line Kit # HS496-153 or 25' Main Line Kit # HS496-253 with the Dexter BrakeRite II # T4813102. These brake line kits use 1/4" steel main lines ensuring they do not flex and the brake pressure gets all the way to the calipers. You will need to select the correct kit based on the length of your main line needed from the placement of the actuator to the front axle.
view full answer... - Triple Axle Brake Line Kit for Use with Demco Surge Actuator part # DM8204311 Yes the triple axle brake line kit part # HS496-253 is the correct brake line kit for your trailer with the Demco actuator part # DM8204311.
view full answer... - Recommendation on Switching Vacuum Over Hydraulic Brakes to Electric Over Hydraulic BrakesSince the braking power is still hydraulic, you should have no issues converting from a vacuum over hydraulic system to an electric over hydraulic (EOH) system. The electric over hydraulic actuator will take the place of the vacuum that pressurized the existing brakes. Now, since you have disc brakes already installed on your trailer, I recommend the HydraStar Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes - 1,600 psi, # HBA16. The HydraStar actuator will allow you to apply the brakes...
view full answer... - Best Disc Brake Actuator for Triple Axle Drum BrakesFor just the actuator by itself the correct Hydrastar is the part # HS381-8066 that you referenced as it's pressure rating is correct for drum brakes and is rated for up to three brake axles. For a kit that includes the needed junction box, 7-way connector, a junction box for easy wiring and other various terminals for an easy install you'd instead want the part # HS381-9066 as all of that is included with this kit. Then for a triple axle brake line kit we have the Hydrastar kit part...

Check out the: -Hydrastar Hydraulic Brake Line Kit # HS496-253. This kit has a 25' long brake line, includes a 6' long brake line - 3/16", (4) 4-1/4' long brake lines - 3/16", (6) 18" male/male rubber flex lines, (3) 3/16" brass, round T-fitting, (2) 3/16" brass union fitting, (1) 3/16" brass, round X-fitting, 1/2" nylon hose clamps, 3/16" nylon hose clamps & self-tapping screws. Attached is a review video for you to check out...
view full answer... - Is Larger Diameter Brake Line Required when Switching from Drum to Disc Trailer BrakesYou would only need to switch to a larger diameter brake line if the braking response was slow. You can go to a larger line if you wanted but it won't be necessary. We have 1/4 line kits such as # HS496-251 for single axle trailers, # HS496-252 for tandem axle trailers, or # HS496-253 for triple axle trailers.
view full answer... - Trailer Disc Brakes are Slow to Respond when Connected to a 2010 Dodge Ram w/Integrated ControllerDodge says their integrated trailer brake controller is compatible with the electric over hydraulic brake systems, but we have found their compatibility to be hit and miss at best. There are a few things that can cause slow response in the trailer brakes. First make sure everything is wired correctly and that there are no weak or bad grounds. Grounds should be attached to clean and corrosion free bare metal surfaces. Make sure there is no corrosion in the vehicle and trailer side connectors.Wiring...
view full answer... - How To Determine A Correct Disc Brake Actuator For A 40 TrailerThe longest brake line kit we offer is theHydrastar Hydraulic Brake Line Kit # HS496-253 which is 25' long, and uses a 3/16" main line. In order to determine the correct replacement disc brake actuator , you'll need to know the GVWR of your trailer, the size of hitch ball it will need to accept, and how it needs to mount. For instance, the Titan Zinc-Plated Actuator w/ Electric Lockout # T4750820 has a maximum weight capacity of 12,500-lbs, will accept a 2-5/16" hitch ball, and will bolt...
view full answer... - Recommendation for Routing Triple Axle Brake Line KitThe easiest solution I may have for you would be to use a triple axle brake line kit like the # 20TR-BLKIT or # HS496-253 and route everything like the picture I attached.

- Disc Brake and Actuator Kit Recommendation for 2016 Grand Design Momentum 397thYour trailer has 7k Lippert axles on it so the disc brake kit you would need is the three sets of # K2HR712D for the disc/rotor and caliper kits. This won't be super cheap but it will give you the best option for converting to disc. For an electric over hydraulic actuator kit you then would want the part # HS381-9067 which will give you everything needed except for brake lines. For that you then would want the part # HS496-253.
view full answer... - Hydraulic Brake Actuator and Brake Lines for Drum Brakes to Homemade TrailerThe Titan Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator # T4079200 can supply brakes to a triple axle trailer and Dexter Heavy Duty Suspension Kit # K71-360-00 will work as a suspension kit for 1-3/4" wide, double eye springs on triple axle trailers. Actuator # T4079200 will work so long as the GVWR of your trailer is no more than 8,000 lbs as that is what it is rated for. The brake line kit that can work for you is the Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Line Kit - Triple Axle # HS496-253 which measures 24 feet long. I...
view full answer... - Disc Brake Kit Needed for a 2015 Cyclone 4200 with Triple Dexter AxlesI reached out to my contact at Dexter Axle who gave me the spindle information for your specific axle. The compatible disc brake kit that I recommend going with is part # K2HR712D from Kodiak. My contact did mention that this axle originally came with electric brakes so you will need a brake line kit as well since it sounds like you already have an actuator. I have linked our available brake line kits. All you have to do is filter through the selection for the best fit for your trailer...
view full answer... - Choosing Between Electric Or Electric Over Hydraulic Brakes on Grand Design Solitude 375RE 5th WheelMechanically speaking, electric brakes are simpler. They're easier to troubleshoot. They're quite a bike less expensive than hydraulic disc brakes. Disc brakes provide more efficient braking. If all in all, you're happy enough with the way your current electric brakes perform (other than the fact they don't currently self adjust) I'd probably stick with electric. In order to recommend the correct Nev-R-Adjust electric brake assemblies, I'd need to know the capacity of each of your axles,...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Convert Triple Axle Trailer with Drum Brakes to Electric Over HydraulicYou'd need a set of 10k rated hydraulic drum brakes like the part # 23-404-405 per axle and then also a kit with the EOH actuator and electronics like the Hydrastar # HS381-9066 and the brake line kit # HS496-253 and you'd have everything you need to convert your trailer with three 10k rated axles with drum brakes to electric over hydraulic drum brakes.
view full answer... - Single Axle Brake Line Kit Needed for Triple Axle Trailer to Make a Triple Axle Disc Brake KitYou wouldn't need a triple axle brake line kit, # HS496-253, because the Titan Disc Brake Kit # T4843800 already comes with 2/3 of what you need. So you would need a single axle kit # DM5424 or # DM5425.
view full answer... - Disc Brakes for Dexter Axle Oil Hub 008-430-03We do have a disc brake kit that is compatible with the Dexter Axle Oil Hub for 9,000-lb - 10,000-lb General Duty Axles # 008-430-03 and for Dexter general-duty axles manufactured after May 2013. This disc brake kit is for spring axles only (which just means it will not fit torsion axles), and is the following: - Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 11" Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - E-Coat Finish - Leaf Spring - 10,000 lb Dexter # K2R1058D11E These are over-the-hub rotors with cast iron calipers for exceptional...
view full answer... - Will the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit Part # K2R1058D11E Work on Torsion AxlesI have the solution you are looking for, however the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 11" Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - E-Coat Finish - Leaf Spring - 10,000-lb Dexter part # K2R1058D11E wil not work on torsion axles. There just isn't enough room for the hardware to fit between the brake flange and frame. Instead you want to use Kodiak Disc Brakes - 13" Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - Raw Finish - Torsion - 10K Dexter and Lippert part # K2R1058D13. This kit is designed specifically for use on your axle.

view full answer... - Parts Needed to Convert 9k Trailer Axles of Texas Pride Car Hauler to Electric Over HydraulicWe have all the parts you need to convert the 9k axles of your Texas Pride car hauler to electric over hydraulic but it's not the kit you mentioned. What you'd need is: Kodiak Disc Brake Kit part # K2HR958QD11 HydraStar Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Kit part # HS381-9067 Hydraulic Brake Line Kit part # HS496-253 This will give you the correct hub/drums, the same Hydrastar actuator that is widely considered to be the best, and all of the needed brake lines.
view full answer... - Converting to Electric-Over-Hydraulic Disc Brakes on Trailer with Three 8,000 Pound AxlesI suggest the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR89DE. They have an E-coat finish which will help reduce corrosion from the elements. Our most popular actuator is the Hydrastar # HBA16 and it's definitely the way to go. See the attached video when we put one on a trailer and it worked great. For brake lines use # HS496-253. If you don't already have a brake controller I suggest the Prodigy P2 # 90885. And for a breakaway kit # 20099.
view full answer... - Converting Electric Brakes To Electric Over Hydraulic Disc Brakes On Triple Axle TrailerYes, we have the HydraStar Hydraulic Brake Line Kit - Triple Axle - 15' Long, 1/4" Main Line, # HS496-153. We also have a 25 foot long kit, # HS496-253. With either kit, I recommend use with the HydraStar Vented Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes - 1,600 psi, # HBA16. This will convert the electric system over to a hydraulic system with the electric motor that pushes the plunger into the hydraulic master cylinder as you brake. I assume you have 3500 lb axles, and if...

For your Toy Hauler with triple 7000lb axles the Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 7,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 8 on 6-1/2 - Pre-Greased # AKIHUB-865-7-2-EZ-K you were looking at will work perfectly with the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 13" Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - Raw Finish - 1/2" Bolts - 7,000 lbs # K2R712. Since you have triple axles you will need six of the idler hubs and three of the disc brake kits. Now you have the electric over hydraulic actuator needed, but did not mention...

Still would buy again, but no availability for replacement parts is a bit frustrating. Have to go to Amazon for those.
