Hey Jorge, in order to convert from electric drum brakes to hydraulic disc brakes on your 2017 Texas Pride Car Hauler Trailer you will need the following parts:
Kodiak Disc Brake Kit part # K2HR958QD11
HydraStar Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Kit part # HS381-9067
Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Line Kit part # HS496-253
The HydraStar Actuators are a favorite here at etrailer as they have proven time and time again to be very reliable and perform extremely well. Are the drum brakes just not strong enough currently?
