You are going to want either our Bearing Kit #BK2-100 or the Timken Kit #TMK52VR. Both of these kits will give you the inner/outer bearings and races along with a grease seal and cotter pin/D-washer for one hub. You always want to replace the race…

There really isn't a particular maximum trailer weight that is used to determine when brakes need to be added to both axles of a tandem axle setup. While I do still recommend checking your local laws, I am also not aware of any general laws that…

We don't have an install video on this exact axle, the Trailer Axle w/ Electric Brakes - 4" Drop - 5 on 4-1/2 Bolt Pattern - 95" Long - 3,500 lbs part #e45SR, but I did do one on a similar style which I have attached for you below. It…

You could technically wire an electric trailer jack directly to your truck's battery, but that isn't really the most practical setup. I've seen one guy pull out his jumper cables every time he wanted to use the jack in this fashion, but I…

The bearings should really be repacked every 12,000 miles or 12 months whichever comes first even if you are not putting 12,000 miles on the trailer. It still a good idea to routinely repack the bearings every 12 months because the grease breaks down…

From past customers we've learned that the AL KO 8460 hub/drum are 5,200 lb capacity drums that have a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. So for a replacement hub you'd want the part #8-201-5UC3. And then for a pair of brake assemblies you'd…

Yes, 14 gauge wire seems too small. I would go with 10 or 12 gauge. For 10 gauge you can use #10-1-1 and for 12 gauge use #12-1-1. These wires are sold in increments of 1 foot. So if you needed 20 feet of wire you would enter 20 in the quantity box.…

With your axle being a 2-1/2" diameter it sounds like you will need either our etrailer Axle #e45SR or the Dexter #7685269-EB. Both of these are 3,500lb axles with the 4" drop a 95" hub face and electric brakes included. You will only…

Yes, the Kodiak Stainless Disc Brake Kit #K2R35S that you referenced would work perfectly with a Tie Down Engineering actuator. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

There is only a single difference between the two 3,500 lb Kodiak disc brake hub and rotor kits you asked about, and that's the protection given to the calipers. - KodaGuard-Coated Cast Iron Calipers: Kodiak Disc Brakes #KOD59FR - Dacromet-Plated…

To determine if there are compatible hubs and associated bearings to replace your current hubs to a more standard size you will have to take several precise measurements on the spindle of your axle. It is recommended to use a set of dial calipers to…

Your spindle dimensions match the 42 spindle which has 1.25 inch and 1.75 inch diameters where the bearings ride. So for a brake hub to fit what you have you'd want the part #8-201-9UC3-EZ which has a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern and then for an…
