Brake Assemblies for a Kaufman Wedge Trailer
Updated 08/18/2017 | Published 08/17/2017 >
Question:
I have a 2015 Kaufman 4 car wedge trailer. It has 3 7000 pound axles. Do these brakes fit that trailer? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Brakes are not trailer specific, instead you would need to know your axle's weight capacity, the size of your wheels, your mounting flange bolt pattern and the inside diameter and depth of your hub.
Since you have 7,000 lb axles, for the brake assemblies you referenced # AKEBRK-7-SA to work with your Kaufman trailer, it would also need to have a 5 bolt mounting flange pattern, hubs that are 12" x 2" and wheels that are 14-1/2", 15", 16" or 16-1/2".
I have linked a video of an install of these brakes so you can see what the process is like, as well as a link to our page with each of our brake assemblies on it.
