Question:
I bought Demco 5428 for my tandem trailer with disc brakes. I now understand that this kit is for drum brakes. What parts can be used for my disc brakes 1600 psi actuator and what parts parts and at what cost should I order to upgrade to kit 5825? .. Thanks

Expert Reply:
All you would need to make the Demco brake line kit part # DM5428 compatible with disc brakes is additional flex lines for what connects to the calipers. Reason being the calipers are floating and they need to move a little bit. So for that you'd need four of the part # DM05982.
