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…
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…
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 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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
Hey Eli! The first thing you want to do is make sure you have brake flanges on those axles. You also need to take a look at the axle tags and find the axle capacity. More than likely they're 3,500 lb axles so I'll answer based on that. If you…
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…
Trailer Breakaway Kit with top load access, kit only
Grab a trailer breakaway kit that keeps things simple and easy to service. The top load box lets you check or swap the battery from above, and the kit only setup covers the essentials without extra add-ons. Wire the battery to your trailer's 12V power so it charges while connected to your tow vehicle, and you're set for electric or electric-over-hydraulic brakes.
The brakes can function without it, but a breakaway is recommended and may be required on trailers more than 3000 lbs. Check your state DOT for specifics. Ensure your 7-way has an active 12v power wire for charging, and wire the breakaway switch inline with the brake circuit per the diagram.
Most are wired to the trailer's 12v power so the battery charges when connected to the tow vehicle. Some breakaway batteries include an internal charger that helps pull a charge off the tow vehicle battery. Verify your kit's components and follow its wiring diagram to confirm charging method.
Connect the battery ground to the trailer frame and run the positive to the 12v power in your trailer's junction box so it can charge when plugged into the tow vehicle. Use appropriate gauge wire like 14ga and a secure terminal on the positive post. If your setup uses two 5 amp-hour batteries, connect them in parallel as shown in typical EOH diagrams.
Yes, if the clamp is around 3 inches wide and 1-1/2 inches tall, it will work on a 2 inch wide frame rail. Measure your frame and the box clamp opening before mounting. Position it where you can top-load the battery and still route wires cleanly to the junction box.
