Bearing, Race and Seal Information
More and more people are switching their trailers over to disc brakes, and with good reason. Disc brakes deliver consistent braking - even at highway speeds - unlike drum brakes, which often show a substantial drop in braking torque at higher speeds. In addition, disc brakes offer a substantially shorter stopping distance than drum brakes. Disc brake calipers have only one moving part, rather than the many found in drum brakes. This means that there are fewer parts to maintain, fewer parts to get damaged and fewer parts to have to repair or replace, thus reducing maintenance costs.
The integral hub-and-rotor is made from cast iron, matching SAE specifications. Cast iron is ideal for high-temperature operations and offers a favorable friction coefficient to ensure adequate stopping power. Kodiak's rotors are vented to effectively dissipate heat, dramatically reducing the incidence of heat-related damage. Furthermore, machined disc brakes minimize the chance of contamination between the hub and rotor, resulting in excellent performance and long life.
Kodiak calipers are constructed of cast iron to prevent flexing. Less flex means more braking torque, resulting in smooth, even braking every time. The corrosion-resistant stainless steel piston is 30 percent larger than standard pistons, ensuring shorter stopping distance and increased torque. In addition, the unique low-drag design of Kodiak's calipers allows the piston to retract farther than in most standard models, giving you a cooler-running brake.
Designed for axles with 4-bolt brake flange configurations, the included mounting brackets are made of heavy-duty ductile iron that is embossed to provide additional threading for guide bolts. The added thread strength ensures a tighter, more secure connection between the caliper and bracket. Another unique feature of Kodiak's brackets is the side-support angle, which guarantees that the load is carried by the bracket, rather than the bolts.

My drum brakes locked up on me because it is a boat trailer and gets submerged in water. I hate drum brakes, due how many part are inside and can rust up. I am the 3rd owner of my 1998 boat trailer and it was hard to figure out what I needed to fix it. I contacted etrailer and they were super helpful, super informative and super easy to work with. I told them what I had, and what I wanted to do., and they put a package together for me and that was them. Everything was super east to install because it is all bolt on. I did have to do some cutting and grinding on my old tongue because the master was welded on. That was the only difficult part. My new setup is amazing and the disk brakes and new master make it feel like my boat is not even there. All in all, I am 110% satisfied and will definitely be a returning customer for any trailer needs. Thank you etrailer for making everything super easy. 635088
Disc brake upgrade has been well worth the effort and cost even after a full year. Travel trailer now stops without divine intervention! Took a while to install it (brake lines mostly), but hey, if you don't have a lift, then your on your back for a lot of hours. 619621
Good information from etrailer on products. Installation manual from Kodiak was disappointing. All around good experience 822911
Fast service, looks to be a great produ ct, 822539
All my old brake hardware was a rusted mess and this was a perfect replacement 815076
Everything I have purchased from you had been the highest of quality. Very quick delivery. I rebuilt my boat trailer with your part and I couldn't be happier 811435
I have six horse drawn wagons with the old style drum brakes that work off of a hydraulic foot pedal. Because the wagons sit for the winter months the wheel cylinders freeze up and this is a huge pain in the butt to fix and they lock up when I am doing a wagon ride and need the wagon right know. I did the research on the disc brakes and the wheel cylinder is stainless steel and designed to be backed into salt water and not only that but self adjusting. Know more crawling under six wagons to adjust brakes every year. Greg S could not have been more knowledgeable about the product. I received the kits next day and they could not have been easier to install. I cannot say enough good about these. I have six more wagons to do and I will be changing all of them out over time. I will not go back to drum brakes. 807275

Outstanding service - quality thru delivery. A customer for life! 698156
I could not be happier, What a diiference to have not just good brakes, but great brakes. Plus, the install was so easy, all the hardware was a perfect fit, instructions were right on the money (btw, I'm a retired engineer from a nuclear plant and I wrote procedures, so I'm picky) Anyway, towed the boat 1,000 miles and what a reassuring feeling to know that the equipment is in good working order and does the job when called upon. I'm attaching a couple of pictures so you can see what I did. Thanks again, I will be using etrailer in the future anytime I need something, feel free to pass on my comments 614784
Easy order process and very quick shipping. Ordered in Sunday night and product was delivered Wednesday with free shipping. Easy to assemble and install. Only issue is the bearings are not included in the kit but other wise no issues. Highly recommend etrailer.com for any trailer parts needed. Great Customer Service. 596698
This kit was the easiest part of installation. The electrical portion was my challenge. Everything mated-up as promised. Thanks Geoff 592994
I have never worked on items with wheels. Since I am 73 now, I must admit it was a piece of cake with the help of the videos. Order show up super fast. 588162
Gerard - 12/04/2019Products fit and work as they should and your help and service on the telephone was great. Thanks 575116
rotors would not fit , was able to use calipers and bracket and had to use old rotors. 573691
Website was very helpful in selecting what I needed. Order process was simple and delivery was actually early! Very satisfied, will make etrailer my normal for trailer needs. 573453
Helen did a great job finding the right parts and getting them to me quickly, thank you 547237
Good product, well-packaged. Got everything needed to replace my worn-out calipers, bearings and rotors, all went smoothly. It turned out great! 524089
The disc brake conversion has been great. I emailed and/or called Kevin a few times and was very helpful. I’ve recommended them several times. 521729
EXCELLENT !! work great. Thanks so m uch. 509243
I received the product a few days ago and everything looks solid. Make sure you purchase all hardware separately because it comes with nothing. No bearings, seals, mounting bolts and nuts, caps for bleeder valve, or lug nuts. It would have been nice to have known this beforehand. 505912
Brakes were as advertised. Mounted easily, and work great. I would recommend them for anyone wanting to upgrade or just replace what they have. 503451
Everything was great. Wish it came with lug nuts (simple thing that would have saved me time). I received everything I ordered and no issues. I will order again from etrailer.com because you know boat trailer breaks don't last long. 495464
