Question:

I have a Holsclaw boat trailer and need a disc brake conversation kit. The axles have 4 bolt plates. Would you also have a brake line/hose kit? Both the inner and outer bearings are L44643. Thanks

Thanks for the additional information! We do have all the parts necessary to convert your Holsclaw Boat Trailer to disc brakes. I have listed them below along with any installation videos we may have.

Idler Hub for item # L44643 Inner and Outer Bearings - Dexter Trailer Idler Hub Galvanized item # 8-259-50

Disc Brake Kit - Kodiak Disc Brake Kit item # K2R35D

Brake Lines - Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Line Kit - Single Axle - 18' item # 18SI-BLKIT

Bearing Grease - LubriMatic LMX Industrial Strength Grease item # L11390

Bearing Kit - Bearing Kit for 1" BT8 Spindle, L44643 Inner/Outer Bearings, 34823 Seal item # BK1-100

Lug Nuts - CE Smith Trailer Wheel Lug Nut - Zinc-Plated Steel - 1/2" - Qty 1 item # CE11051

I wasn't able to find out what lug pattern your trailer has but you don't have many options. The smallest hub pattern available is 5 on 4-1/2. You will need two of item # 8-259-50 as they are sold individually. You will also need two of the item # BK1-100, one for each hub. The lug nuts are sold individually as well so you will need ten of the item # CE11051. Everything else recommended you will only need one of.

If you end up having to replace your wheels and tires I would just need to know what size tires you have and if you want white or galvanized wheels.
