Question:

I am planning to buy a complete tandem axle brake kit for my boat trailer. I am planning to use your Galvanized 13inch by 4.5inch wheels part number AM20234. In one of your question and answer areas, Mike H was asked about the correct disc brakes to use for this persons 13inch wheels and he was told to go with the Kodiak brand because their calipers were a bit smaller and would fit better. He said the Titan would not fit all 13 inch wheels. Will the Titan disc brakes included in this kit #T4747200 fit into your 13inch wheels part# AM20234 or should I go with the Kodiak. I would prefer to stay with the Titan because it offers a complete kit at a good price. Also, Will this kit work with the Dexter TS3571EZ axles that I recently purchased from Six Roblees? I needed the 71 inch length outer hub to outer hub so I bought these locally. Thank You

The Titan Disc Brake Kit # T4747200 that you referenced has been confirmed to work on 13 inch trailer wheels like the part # AM20234 that you referenced so it would work well for you.

I wasn't able to find any information on the TS3571EZ axle you have by Dexter, but I will say this will fit a Dexter 3,500 lb axle that has hubs on it currently that are inner bearing number of L68149 and outer bearing number of L44649. Pull your current hubs to check the bearings to be sure.
