Hey Ronald, based on the part number you mentioned the correct brake assemblies would be the etrailer brake assemblies part #AKEBRK-7-SA which are a self adjusting set that are the correct capacity for the hub/drums that you have.

In order to use your reverse lights as utility lights you would have to have a separate 12 volt power wire running to the lights. You would need a switch and you would need diodes to prevent back feeding. You would need to run some wire from the 12…

There are two differences between the 6K and 7K brake assemblies. For the 7K, they use a semi-metallic compound on the brake shoes instead of the composite compound, and the magnets are stronger. This gives the brake assemblies more stopping power.…

All of the electrical readings you are getting on your electric brakes sound normal and the lower amperage readings are likely due to additional resistance due to the longer wiring used on the rear axle. It sounds like there is either an issue with…

The real difference between the Titan BrakeRite I Plug and Play Electric-Hydraulic Actuator Kit #T4813102 and the Titan BrakeRite II is with the control module. The BrakeRite II has it as a sperate, self-contained control module instead of including…

If you already have brake drums you will not have to replace them unless they are damaged or became overheated and have discoloration on the inside armature surface where the magnet rides, grooves in the armature surface, or severe wear where the…

Because the face of the magnet rides against the armature (inside) surface of the brake drum, any grooves that had previously been worn into the armature surface will cause the magnet to wear unevenly. For optimal braking performance, you want…

The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - 12" - Right Hand - 7,000 lbs #23-181 and Left Hand #23-180 should should be torqued to 30-50 foot/lbs.

I would not recommend using fuses instead of a circuit breaker when installing a brake controller like the Primus IQ #TK90160. While it does protect the circuit it also totally kills the circuit till the fuse is replaced. A breaker will reset…

The easiest way to determine exactly what brake assembly you have is to take the hub and drub off of your axle an measure the diameter of the inside of the drum and then measure the depth. This will tell you what size brake assemblies you need. I…

A 4-Way trailer connector has the basic lighting functions only; running lights, left turn signal and brake lights, right turn signal and brake lights, and ground. A 7-Way has these functions and a 12 volt circuit, a circuit for electric trailer…

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.
