Question:

Is the correct brake for a 2017 Highland Ridge Open Range 323 RLS trailer. I have Lippert 5200 pound axles. I don't know about the ABS feature? I dont think I have ABS currently.

Welcome back Tom and thanks for that picture! They are not and you are correct you don't have ABS on your Highland Ridge travel trailer. To replace your brake assemblies, I recommend our etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes item # AKEBRK-6.

Our etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes item # AKEBRK-6 are designed to work with the Lippert 5,200 lbs axles. This is a set of left and right brake assemblies that will attach directly to the 5 bolt brake flange on your axles. They are manually adjusted and have a simple 2-wire installation. Either wire can be used for power or ground so don't be worried when these show up with two black colored wires.

If you want to upgrade to self-adjusting brake assemblies, our Self-Adjusting etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes item # AKEBRK-7-SA also work with your Lippert 5,200 lbs axles. These require no adjustment or tuning once you get them installed.

Are you replacing the original brakes on your trailer and what kind of roads do you typically travel? If those are your original brake assemblies or the bolts holding them on are looking rough, I recommend picking up some new mounting hardware with item # BRKH12. This kit will replace one axles worth of mounting bolts, lock washers, and nuts.
