Question:
Good afternoon, I am looking to replace the braking system on my 2011 tandem axle 12500lb boat trailer with torsion axles. I have these parts in mind. Do you see any issues for my application or compatibilities between parts? T4750620 actuator, K2R526DKG brakes, 8-213-51UC1-EZ hubs, and 18TA-BLKIT brake line kit. I have not disassembled anything yet.

Hey Kimber, I had a chance to look at all those parts and I do not see anything wrong with what you've picked. The braking assemblies # K2R526DKG, hubs # 8-213-51UC1-EZ, brake line kit # 18TA-BLKIT, and the actuator all look good.
