Switching from drums to discs is one of the biggest braking upgrades you can make. This Kodiak setup uses a 1-piece 12" hub-and-rotor assembly with a 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern and 1/2" wheel bolts, giving you smooth, controlled stops on 5,200-lb to 6,000-lb axles. Ceramic brake pads and a large 2-1/4" stainless steel piston give strong, responsive braking that feels steady and predictable every time you hit the brakes.
If you run in coastal areas or over treated winter roads, corrosion is always a concern. The Dacromet coating on the hub-rotor, calipers, and brackets holds up to 300-400 hours of salt spray, keeping rust at bay even with frequent freshwater or saltwater use. It’s a solid choice for boat trailers and anyone who wants brakes that stay reliable in wet or corrosive environments.
Instead of a slip-on rotor that can trap moisture, this integrated hub-and-rotor design keeps out water and debris to prevent uneven wear and corrosion. The vented rotor dissipates heat quickly to reduce brake fade and extend pad life. A side-support caliper bracket carries the load on the bracket instead of the bolts, which helps prevent premature wear for consistent braking over the long haul.
Everything needed to upgrade one axle comes in the box — two Dacromet-plated hub-and-rotor assemblies with inner (25580) and outer (15123) bearings, races, grease seals (10-36), E-Z Lube caps, wheel bolts, and zinc-plated lug nuts. With only five mounting bolts per side and minimal maintenance required afterward, it’s an easy weekend upgrade for better braking performance that lasts.

Nothing new which is good news, although I will replace the bearings sometime this winter with Timken. This is the stock brake for Morryde IIS and it work well enough. The China bearing are what it comes with, but in an effort to not have to worrywonder, Timken is my choice. Not sure about some of the complaints but other than cardboard not holding up to heavy metal mine were new and good. I believe sometimes returns and part get put in a box a second time and that screws everyone up. Not being an upgrade, I am not sure there is another choice even if I wanted it.
