The line kit is a great start. If you want to minimize the bends and extra line do yourself a favor and get a quality double flare tool. I cut 5 feet off of the main line. I plan on taking a foot off of the connecting lines. 3515037

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. 1453208

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. 1678983
Prcise with the right item that I didn't have the expertise without the deepth of knowledge and experience exhibited by the team at etrailer.com
Will provide pics when all tasks complete.

Hi James; Lippert wasn't able to identify the hub off of that number so I'm not 100% sure what bearing combination you have. It does look like it is an 8k hub with a 12" x 2" drum which isn't common. Another customer reported # 25580 inner and # 02475 outer bearings with some uncertainty but that would line up with your standard 8k bearing combination.
Assuming that is correct, you can use the # KOD82FR if you're looking for a hub/rotor. If you want to use slip-on rotors you will need... view full answer...
I 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...
I can certainly help you out with a disc brake set up on your trailer. The first thing we need to find out in order to select the correct parts would be the inner and outer bearing numbers stamped into the sides of the bearings in the hubs you have now. With that information I can ensure that we get you the right parts.
I would also need to know the bolt pattern of the wheels and what kind of braking system the trailer currently has. Also, do all 3 of the axles have brake mounting flanges?... view full answer...
I was able to determine that your 9,000lb axles on your Texas Pride Trailer will accept the Dexter Axle Oil Hub # 008-430-03. It uses the same Outer Bearing # 25580, Inner Bearing # 387A and this will use the Oil Seal # 10-51 which is the same 2.875 inner diameter as your grease seal. You will need the Oil Cap Kit # RG04-270 for the new hubs. And the Kodiak Synthetic Bearing Oil # XLPROLUBE can be used with all manufactures.
The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2R1058D11E will provide you with... view full answer...
Hey Jorge, in order to convert from electric drum brakes to hydraulic disc brakes on your 2017 Texas Pride Car Hauler Trailer you will need the following parts:
Kodiak Disc Brake Kit part # K2HR958QD11
HydraStar Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Kit part # HS381-9067
Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Line Kit part # HS496-253
The HydraStar Actuators are a favorite here at etrailer as they have proven time and time again to be very reliable and perform extremely well. Are the drum brakes just... view full answer...
Hi Arnel; the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR10-13-HD is specific to 10k ALKO axles with a #99 spindle. You have a 2022 trailer so I'm sure you do not have ALKO axles since they were discontinued quite a while ago.
Assuming you have leaf springs, you may be able to use the # K2R1058D11E along with the Dexter Oil Hub for 9K to 10K General Duty Axles - After April 2013 # 008-430-03. The hub uses the # 387A inner and # 25580 outer bearing so I would make sure that matches your axle.
You will... view full answer...
The 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. view full answer...
We 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...
The D100G axles on your 2016 Diamond C trailer are 10,000 lb axles. Based on the manufacture date you need the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 11" Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - E-Coat Finish - Leaf Spring - 10,000-lb Dexter # K2R1058D11E which fits the # 008-430-03 hub made after May 2013.
If you need hydraulic brake lines I recommend the Hydrastar Hydraulic Brake Line Kit # HS496-252 or # HS496-253. I'm not sure if you have tandem or triple axles so I gave you the option for both.
For an actuator and... view full answer...
The best braking system for towing a trailer that has brakes would be an Electric-Over-Hydraulic (EOH) system like what you are referencing. I do have a solution for you, but we do not have any of the products that you mentioned. Hydraulic disc brakes are superior to drum brakes and when you couple them with the accurate braking of a proportional brake controller like the Tekonsha P3 # 90195 it is hard to find a system that is more efficient.
What I recommend doing is using an EOH actuator... view full answer...
There 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...
The Dexter DX Series Electric Over Hydraulic Brake Actuator for Drum Brakes part # K71-650 will work well to actuate your drum brakes on the triple axle trailer when you switch over to electric over hydraulic brakes. You will also need a brake line kit. The longest brake line kit we have available is HydraStar Hydraulic Brake Line Kit - Triple Axle - 25' Long, 3/16" Main Line part # HS496-253. I do not believe this line kit will be long enough but I do not know how far back your axle. If... view full answer...
I have attached for you below a list of parts that you will need to convert your 2017 K-Z Durango Gold G384RLT 5th Wheel Trailer from electric drum to hydraulic disc brakes. If my research is correct, you have two 7,000 lb Dexter Axles but if this is not the case please just let me know.

Since 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...
I 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.

While we do not have a specific kit for your triple axle toy hauler with the 5,080lb axles we do have all the parts you will need. You will need to verify the bearing and grease seal sizes used on your axle to ensure I have all the correct parts listed below. You should have a grease seal with ID of 2.25", inner bearing ID of 1.75" and outer bearing ID of 1.25". Please let me know if you have something different otherwise here is a list of all the parts you will need.

The Hydrastar electric over hydraulic braking system # HBA16 is compatible with the factory brake controller in your 2013 Ford F-350 without needing an adapter. I have linked a video review of this actuator for you.
I have included a link to the disc brake kits we carry for 7,000 pound axles. Raw finish kits such as # K2HR712 will be the most cost effective while dacromet and stainless kit # K2HR758DDS will cost the most. Raw finish brakes will be susceptible to corrosion where as with... view full answer...
You sure would!
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... view full answer...
You'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...
We 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...
Your 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...
