Question:

Hi, I have a 2016 Dethmers AT6000P CAr hauler, an Ex Penkse unit that needs a brake overhaul. Rotors, Calipers, pads, and short hoses. but am not sure what to purchase. Do you have the components for this trailer for sale?

I am sure we do have the components you need but I will need two pieces of info from you. The axle capacity as well as the wheel bolt pattern. With those pieces of info I can help you get what you need. In the mean time I attached a link on this page to an article that covers how to add disc brakes to a trailer that will walk you through the entire process as well.

Jameson, Two 3500 Lb Torsion Axles It's a 5 lug pattern but I don't know the spacing off the top of my head 14" rims.

@Galen Right on, so the 14 inch trailer wheels basically all have the same 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern so that should be enough info to get what you'd need. For that the DeeMax kit part # DE66YR would work great. I should have asked how long of a flexible brake line you needed but we do have the part # DE56GR which is 1 foot which most likely would be what you'd need.

@JamesonC The rotors are separate from the hub ( At least on the front axle) so with that in mind would this be a better fit? Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 10" Rotor - 5 on 4-1/2 - Dacromet - 3,500 lbs - 3500 lbs Axle

@Galen Ahh gotcha so you are looking for a slip on style kit instead like the part # K2R35DS? This would slip onto the idler hubs you have now. Or if you wanted a kit that has the hub/rotors built in similar to what you just mentioned we have the part # K2HR35D.
