Converting Electric Brakes To Disc Brakes On Trailer
Updated 04/15/2016 | Published 04/14/2016
Question:
My current electric brakes and tires have 1.25inch of space between the tires and the trailer frame. Will the Kodiac disc brake conversion fit?

Installing disc brakes on your trailer will not cause a problem with clearance.
The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit, part # K2HR79E has a 13-inch rotor and an 8 on 6-1/2 bolt pattern. This kit is designed for a 5-bolt brake flange.
There are other items you will need to convert your electric brakes to either electric over hydraulic disc or hydraulic disc brakes. I have attached links to a couple helpful articles that explain what is needed to do the conversion.
If you have any questions about the items needed and want to give me information about your trailer and what you currently have I will make some recommendations that will work for you.
