Question:
Can I replace my air brakes with these electric brakes?
asked by: Clint H
Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, you can replace air brakes with electric brakes like the 12-1/4" Electric Trailer Brake Kit w/ Dust Shields # AKEBRK-10, you'll just have to also replace all of the air lines with electric wiring # 10-1-1, make sure you have all of this connected to a 7-Way # 277-000141, and a breakaway kit like part # 20400 designed for single and tandem axle trailers.
I'm linking an article on adding electric trailer brakes for you to check out as well.
