Question:

Hi. I am interested in having electric brakes installed on a 1997 coleman cheyenne. Installed on the trailer already are the backing plates with four holes. The wiring appears to be there as well. Here is the rest of the information I have. The tag on the axle reads 2090 lb capacity including springs and wheels.inch The bearing # 44649, race #44610. For the seals, I have two numbers. GS17 and 482163N. The bolt pattern for the wheels are 5 on 4 1/2. I think I would be looking for self adjusting brakes. We do a lot of traveling too, is there anything you can recommend for ez greasing of the bearings? Thank you very much for your time. I have learned a lot from this site.

We have just what you need. Thank you for all the info you gave me as that makes my job much easier.

First you have to start with hub/drums that fit the spindle. For that you'd want the # AKHD-545-2-EZ-2K which will fit your spindle based on the bearing dimensions you have. It also has a bolt pattern of 5 on 4-1/2 inch.

There are only manual adjusting assemblies available in the size you'd need though since they are smaller. For a kit that included both the left and right you'd want the part # AKEBRK-2.
