First I want to make sure you verify your channel mount for the Demco Trailer Coupler #DM14040-81 has a 21K or larger capacity as often times they are less like the Demco #DM15349-52 which often times people look at and think it is a channel mount…
Personally I prefer the Demco Trailer Coupler #DM14976-52 with the composite handle over the Coupler #DM15791-81 with a metal handle. I feel it is easier to operate as it does not have the safety latch like you get on the metal handle. Since most…
According to Blue Ox, it'll take an experienced installer about 4 to 5 hours to complete the installation of their #BX1128 Base Plate Kit on a 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The install isn't what I'd call super-difficult, but the installation…
Hello Keith, Looks like you already found the equalizer you need, the Equalizer for 2" Wide Slipper Springs - 12" Long - 7/8" Center Hole #TREQ4541. You should have 2 1/4" shackles (you will want to measure to confirm, center hole…

Hey David! The DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit w/ Actuator for Tandem Axle Trailers item #DE46AR will work so long as you have idler hubs with a 8 on 6-1/2 lug nut pattern like item #DE46VR. These are slip on rotors so you're definitely going to need some…
First you will need to remove the old hydraulic equipment. Remove the surge coupler or actuator, remove all the lines, and finally remove the brake assemblies. If you have 10 inch diameter hub and drums, you may need to replace those as well. If you…
Hey Larry, we sell a bolt/hardware kit for the Demco Adjustable Coupler part #DM88XR with the part #DM6166 which the price for that is down below. Does your trailer have the channel needed for this?
I found a surge coupler that will work well on your trailer. However, the part that you referenced, #DM8204011, is designed only to work with drum brake systems. Disc brake systems need higher psi for the calipers to activate the brakes and drum…
All of that is not necessary. All you have to do is lock out the surge coupler so it cannot move in and out or disconnect the brake lines. By removing the old coupler you would have to remove the brake lines any way. A surge coupler can still be used…
