Question:
Im looking to upgrade my 22 enclosed car trailer brakes to disc, electric over hydraulic and am looking at the Kodiak KOD69FR. It is a tandem axel trailer with Lippert Serial S011400396 axels, they have the easy grease hubs and are 5200lb axels. Are these the right disc brakes? is there a kit with, brakes, lines and actuator? If you need more info I can send a pic of the axel label. Thanks Alan

Hey Alan, we actually have a kit for exactly what you are looking for with the part # HYD44VR. This kit was designed for converting a trailer with tandem 5.2k axles to electric over hydraulic disc and comes with everything needed so it's a one part number solution and you're going to have everything. The actuator that comes with it is our favorite here as it's the most reliable and also best performing.
