Complete Breakdown of the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit-K2R35S

Hello, everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the Kodiak Stainless Steel Disc Brake Kit with the 10 inch slip-on rotors, has the 5 on 4 1/2 inch bolt pattern, and it's designed for 3,500 pound axles. Now, this trailer disc brake kit will include the two assemblies with the rustproof stainless steel rotors, calipers, and mounting brackets. The brake assemblies will make it easy to change from an idler axle to a disc brake axle, and disc brakes will deliver better performance than drum brakes, 'cause there's more consistent stopping even at highway speeds and dramatically shorter stopping distances. Also, the maintenance costs are lower than for drum brakes, 'cause you have fewer moving parts that you have to maintain, repair, or replace. Now, the stainless steel construction is durable and rustproof, so it is ideal for marine use, has a 1,000 hour salt spray rating. more

Feature Breakdown: Dexter Hydraulic Drum Brakes

Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today I'm gonna take a look at the Dexter 12 inch by 2 inch corrosion-resistant left hand and right hand free backing hydraulic drum break assemblies with the parking brake, and these are for a 7,000 pound axle. Now, these hydraulic drum brake assemblies are designed for use with a surge type trailer brake actuator. These we mentioned are a free backing design, and the free backing design lets you reverse without the trailer brakes being activated. And they do that because the hydraulic pressure is contained by the wheel cylinder and the brake shoe turns and releases pressure when it's reversing. more
