Hey Don! The Kodiak # KOD32FR will not fit the etrailer # e35GR. These brakes are designed to fit a 4-bolt brake flange on 8k axles and the etrailer 7k axle has a 5-bolt brake flange. Even if they matched, these are specifically designed for the old AL-KO axles which are a little different.

For 7k disc brakes with 5/8" studs I recommend the Kodiak Disc Brakes # KOD63FR instead. Are you wanting oil bath disc brakes? These are designed for grease but can be converted to oil bath by swapping out the seal with # 9103309 if that is what you would prefer.

Hey Don, how did the Kodiak disc brakes end up working with your 7K axle setup? Your update could make it easier for others trying to match hubs and brakes with 5/8" studs.
