That's a very good question, we tend to be extra cautious and say to use 10 gauge wire because that would be more than enough. When you get into longer trailers that will end up using a lot of wire the heavier gauge wire becomes more necessary.…
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 Dan. The only DC to DC charger that you might be able to get away with mounting in a battery box is the OptiMate Smart Battery Charger item #MA99JR. It has a weatherproof case but it's still restricted to inside use only. An easier and more…
Hey Michael, thanks for reaching out! The Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes #23-468-469 are an excellent choice, and will pair nicely with the Dexter Trailer Hub & Drum Assembly #84546UC3-EZ. This hub and drum comes pre-greased to…
Hello Rene, thanks for reaching out. It is pretty typical for RV manufacturers to use axles that are not rated for the full GVWR. They say this is because 10%-15% of the camper weight is on the hitch instead of the axles. They will put the bare…
Hi Shawn! I was able to find a little info on the Binkley 48000 SL you need to replace, and it looks like the etrailer Square Jack w/Handle - Foot Lever - Drop Leg - Spring Return - 12K Lift - 26.5" Travel #TJDDP-20000SP-F will be a pretty close…

A 4-Way trailer connector has the basic lighting functions only; running lights, left turn signal and brake lights, right turn signal and brake lights, and ground. A 7-Way has these functions and a 12 volt circuit, a circuit for electric trailer…
Hello Joe, thanks for reaching out. We do offer the parts you are looking for re-wiring your trailer, but we would not have everything as a full all-inclusive kit. What I recommend is a 7-way with junction box, then you can use jacketed 7-wire, or…
Hi Ben; the difference in the drum size won't make a difference as long as you have a #84 spindle with #L68149 inner and #L44649 outer bearings. The #AKHD-545-35-EZ-K is 10" x 2-1/2" while the #84546UC3-EZ is 10" x 2-1/4" and…
Typically 4-way wiring consists of 18 and 16 gauge wires. For a 4-way that has all 16 gauge wire you would want the Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector #W787264. The part #HM38138 uses 18 gauge for all wires but the white that uses 16 gauge.
...To completely rewire your 20' trailer from start to finish I recommend using the following parts:
7-Way Connector and Cable - Hopkins Molded Cable 8' Long item # H20046
Junction Box - Trailer...
