Hey there Mohan. The Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 72" Long - 2,000 lbs #e37YR you were looking at already has an idler hub on it which is not setup for brakes. You would need to replace the axle with something like…
Hey Scott! I recommend using the Hydrastar Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes #HS381-8067. Hydrastar is a reliable, proven brand so it will serve you well. Then for brake lines you can use the Hydrastar Hydraulic Brake Line Kit -…
Hello Brady, thanks for reaching out. The Fastway Zip Coiled Trailer Breakaway Cable w/ Plunger Pin #FA80-01-2204 will work with breakaways from Fastway and Bargman. I don't have a complete list of all the part numbers but it should work with any…
It sounds like you are speaking of the wires for the brake magnets. If this is correct, you will need to connect one of the wires to the brake controller output wire on your trailer connector and the other wire will need to be grounded to a clean…
Hey Jeff. We have all of those parts, and I have listed them below, but no there is no one and done kit for a 20' farm trailer's brakes and lights. 7-Way Connector and Junction Box - 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector, 6' Long item…
The correct way to wire your breakaway battery, like the Hopkins Engager #20400, is to have the black wire from the battery connected to the 12V power on your trailer, and then the blue wire to your breakaway switch which, in turn, connects to the…
When aligning tandem axles you simply want to make sure you are aligning them so they are square to the trailer frame. The easiest way to do this is with a simple measurement from the center of the trailer frame to the to the center of the wheel on…
Hey Trevor! You don't need to add a trailer battery to use the etrailer Electric Trailer Jack #e72QV. The jack has its own 7-way plug that connects directly to your tow vehicle for power, so it is a really nice option for an enclosed trailer like…
While I was unable to confirm who manufacturers the Defender 2 brake away system on your 2021 Big Tex 60EC. I do agree that the Bright Way Push-to-Test Trailer Breakaway Kit #3802346 does look identical minus the decal and they have the same wiring…
Hi Jim, the honest answer is that there isn’t a direct replacement or rebuild kit still available for the TDE LP8000, so the right path forward is to replace the entire actuator, which typically means cutting the old one off and installing a new…
Hi Don, Based off the measurements of your current equalizer being 5 5/8" center to center, I wouldn't recommend using the MORryde CRE3000 because it's over an inch longer than your current equalizer. Having an equalizer that's…
The Hydrastar Vented Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes #HS481-8067 is designed to be completely plug-and-play so the female end of the 7-way would need to connect to the 7-way cable that's already installed on the trailer…
Set up your trailer the way you like with a trailer breakaway kit that includes a 48 inch long wire for the switch, giving you more room to place the box and route cleanly. The added reach helps make installation straightforward when swapping out a tired unit. Sturdy housings and solid mounting lugs keep everything secure once it's bolted to the frame.
Installation is generally easy. Match the wire count on the kit to your trailer wiring—if the kit has more wires than your setup, consult its diagram. Check that the box cover hinge is fully seated if it doesn't swing open. Reuse existing mounting holes when possible and place the switch so the lanyard pulls cleanly without snagging. Sun exposure can be tough over time, so mount thoughtfully.
Some include a battery and some do not. Check the listing to confirm whether a battery is included. Reviews note kits arriving with the battery fully charged as well as kits arriving without a battery. Many kits include a charger that trickle charges when plugged into the tow vehicle, so verify the charger type and connectors before installing.
Yes, 48 Inch Long (4') leads give good flexibility for mounting the box and running the switch to the coupler. Look for kits noted with nice long wires to make routing easier. Position the switch so the lanyard pulls straight if uncoupled and doesn't drag. If your mount point is farther back, plan the run so the lead isn't stretched around sharp edges.
Yes, there are kits designed for single or tandem axle trailers. Verify your trailer's brake setup matches the kit's wiring. If you upgraded to dual axle brakes, confirm wire length reaches your junction point and that the kit's components meet your brake system needs. If a cover won't open or seat, recheck the hinge fit before wiring.
