I can help you get there, but we do not have a database of each part that is on each year, make and model of trailer so there would be no way for me to tell you outright the specific part number you need.

What I can do is tell you what you need to know to find the right caliper, which is simply weight rating of the disc brake assembly on your 2001 Mastercraft trailer, and if possible, the manufacturer. For example, the Replacement Caliper for Dexter Disc Brakes # K71-636-00 will fit all 6,000-lb Dexter disc brake assemblies.

If you get back to me with what your brakes are rated for, what side you need the replacement for, and possibly the brake manufacturer I would try and find you the correct caliper.
