Question:

Electric brakes

Expert Reply:

To determine if we have a hub/drum assembly that will fit your spindle in order to add electric brakes, I need to know the inner and outer bearings on your current assembly. You can remove a hub and the bearing numbers will be printed on the face of both the inner and outer bearings.

If you are unable to read the bearing numbers, then you can use a digital caliper like # PTW80157 to get the precise measurements of your spindle where the bearings sit. I've attached a photo to assist.

If we have hub/drums that fit, then I can also give you the brake assemblies to go with them. If you have the # 42660UC1 hubs, then we don't have anything that will fit to convert to electric brakes based on those bearing diameters.
