Question:

I want to know which product is superior Kodiak or Titan for a dexter 8 on 61/2inch 7,000 pound axles. Or does dexter make a better disc brake system. I have a 2016 Montana 370 BR GVW around 15,500 lbs. I dont want the cheapest or china made crud as well.

Helpful Expert Reply:

We offer and sell more Kodiak disc brake products than other brands and our customers consistently rate these Kodiak kits very highly. Our installers did not express a major preference for one brand over the other but they do have more experience with the USA-made Kodiak kits so I recommend you consider one of the 7K-rated 8-on-6-1/2 kits shown on the linked page. We do not offer Dexter disc kits.

You can refer to the linked article for explanation of the items needed to complete a conversion from OEM drums to electric-over-hydraulic disc trailer brakes.

We offer both rotor-only kits like # K2R712DAC and hub/rotor kits like # K2HR712D and you also have choices in the type of finish on the parts. Raw finish, Dacromet finish, E-Coat and kits with stainless steel components are offered. Just click on the filters to select your preferences.
