Question:
I have a cart assembled to put brakes on my 2017 trailer. It’s single axle, built by magic tilt. No existing brakes. 14” wheels w 5 lug pattern. Is this all I would need? I want my trailer to back up without needing to do anything.

Expert Reply:
Yes, you have done your research well. These parts will fit together and allow you to back up without needing anything else. I can confirm that Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator item # DM8609101 will work with the Hydraulic Trailer Brake Kit - Uni-Servo - Dacromet - 10" - Left/Right Hand Assemblies - 3.5K item # AKUBRK-35-D. These brake assemblies are compatible with the Easy Grease Trailer Hub/Drum Assembly for 3.5K Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Galvanized item # AKHD-545-35-G-EZ-K. They fit inner bearing item # L68149 (1.378" inner diameter) and outer bearing item # L44649 (1.063" inner diameter).
From my research it looks like Magic Tilt single axle trailers are 9' - 16' long. You can use either the Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Line Kit - 15 Feet item # 15SI-BLKIT or 18 Feet item # 18SI-BLKIT depending on your needs.
You may also need the Brake Adjustment Spoon for Drum Brakes item # W80630.
