Recommended Stainless Steel Caliper Kit for a Triple Axle Boat Trailer
Updated 10/27/2025 | Published 03/04/2025
Question:
I currently have a triple axle boat trailer with 8 lug 7K axles. Currently there are Dexter Ufp dB-35 41050R and 41050L calipers on the front axle along with brackets. Can you recommend an all stainless kit with brackets that I can replace these with? Looking for a plug and play if that exists. And/or add another set to an axle. Thanks, Brent

Hey Brent, for your boat trailer with Dexter UFP DB-35 41050R and 41050L calipers you can use the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2R712S. This kit includes stainless steel calipers, mounting brackets, and will uses slip on over the hub rotors so it's pretty much plug and play.
What kind of boat or boats do you haul with your trailer? If there is anything else I can do to help you, please feel free to let me know!
