Trailer Brakes with Free Backing for Easy Reverse

Match your brakes by checking hub diameter and the brake flange: 4 bolts means 10 inch, 5 means 12 inch. Free backing lets you reverse without locking up, ideal with hydraulic surge setups and boat trailers. If you have a #84 spindle, that confirms a 3,500 lb axle and 10 inch assemblies.
Free-backing brakes let you back up without the brakes locking. They eliminate having to pin the actuator to reverse. Check whether your actuator has a reverse lockout; if it does not, free-backing is a smart pick. This is especially handy on boat trailers when backing down ramps.
