Drum brake assemblies provide superior protection from corrosion and let you reverse without actuating. Designed for use with hydraulic brake actuators that do not include reverse lockouts. Fit most 14-1/2", 15" and 16" wheels.
Features:
Specs:
The unique free-backing design, patented by DICO, lets your trailer move in reverse without actuating the brakes. When you begin backing up, the brake shoes are firm against the drum, as in a braking situation. As you continue in reverse, however, the shoes turn with the drum until the lining pressure is released and you are able to back up freely.
These brakes are designed to eliminate friction between the shoes and drum when you are driving in reverse. A trailer breakaway kit will not be effective should your trailer disconnect from your tow vehicle when backing up.

Both the brakes and hubs are working well. etrailer was very helpful with finding the correct product and for providing torque specifications for the install. The only negative comment is that one of the four brake kits had damage to a brake pad. The damage was caused from brake assemblies bumping into each other in the box. The box could have been packed more securely. However, etrailer was very good about replacing the brake assembly and getting the replacement shipped quickly.
I rebuilt an old boat trailer that has been sitting outside for 10 years. It was in really bad shape & I could not read any of the bearing numbers, all had had was the dimension of the hub & the old bearings. Stacey A. at etrailer was very helpful in getting the right parts I needed & best of all when I got my parts they all fit. The brake kit was great just bolt them on. Very quick shipping & great service.
Thanks
Brakes work fine. Got freebacking so i can easily back the boat trailer up without dealing with the brakes locking up. Long story short the freebacking doesnt work worth a crap and i shouldve gone non freebacking and saved the money
Great brake set up. Are used them on a tandem axle galvanize trailer that sees a lot of salt water. I installed a freshwater rinse but realistic you’ll get five years out of them if you use it as often as I do. Cheap insurance for stopping a 8000 pound trailer and boat.
Fit perfect and worked well.
Working great, tested them again today when my 30' proline was a bit short of being full up. Drove about 5 mph, hit the breaks hard, and these brakes (surge) locked the tires up as expected, and bumped the boat forward just enough. Everything I've received from Etrailer has worked as expected.
Chris was very knowledgeable about the products that I was looking for and made sure I had everything I needed to get my trailer brakes back working.
