Question:
My ski boat rides on an EZ-Loader dual axle trailer with oil bath hubs. My disc brakes are sticking and I’m hoping to upgrade to something that might last a little longer in my salt water environment. I believe that I currently have non-integral 10” disc brakes. I’m thinking they are made by UFP and are probably model DP-35. I see that you have some stainless steel Kodiak brakes. Will the bracket work with my current axle? Can I keep my current oil bath hubs with 5 lug nuts? Is this the best for salt water? K2R35DS Thanks for any help you can provide.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, you can keep your oil bath hubs and use the Kodiak disc brakes; you mentioned a salt water environment and stainless steel brakes so you have two options, with the all-stainless steel being the best in terms of corrosion resistance, as you can see by the salt spray ratings of each:
- 300- to 400-Hour Salt-Spray Rating: Dacromet and Stainless Steel: Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2R35DS
- 1,000-Hour Salt-Spray Rating: Stainless Steel: Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2R35S
In order to be sure these fit, you do need to make sure you have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern, and if you aren't sure you can check out the help article I attached on how to determine your bolt pattern. You also need to have a 4-bolt brake mounting flange though that seems highly likely considering you are simply replacing your previous disc brakes.
I have added links to a couple video reviews for you to check out as well.
