Question:
Howdy, I have an off road trailer with #84 E-Z Lube Spindle and drum brakes. I want to change them to disc brakes for better stopping and simpler maintenance. Will this disc brake assembly kit work on #84 E-Z Lube Spindle with Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles #84655UC1-EZ? I know that Ill also need to get an electric over hydraulic actuator. Thanks for your assistance!

Expert Reply:
The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2R526D wouldn't be ideal for you since you have an 84 spindle as this kit fits idler hubs that fit the 42 spindle. A better option would be the Kodiak kit part # K2HR35D which comes with hub/rotors that fit the 84 spindle.
Then for an actuator kit that comes with everything needed plus an actuator with the best reaction time and reliability you'd want the Hydrastar part # HS381-9065.
