trailer brakes

[cfelton]

That was my next question, which axle ta put em on. I guess the weight transfer to the front makes putting em on the front axle the preferred choise. Iv gotta order a new master cylinder for my DICO coupler and I'll go with the Kodiak disc for the front axle. Thanks for all the information. Its really helped me alot!!

Well I finally ordered a pair of Kodiak SCAD disc brakes for my trailer monday. I got them today, talk about fast these folks are on time.I ordered them from Custom Hitch & Trailer out of Naples Florida. I got hubs with rotors, calipers,ceramic pads, all the wheel brgs and seals and mounting bolts,even got lug nuts for $199.95. Looks like a hell of a deal ta me! Also ordered a reverse lockout solenoid to go behind the acuator for $29.95. Now I gotta take time to mount em up and Ill be ready!

Sounds like a great deal!! Compared to other prices I have heard of.

But I just did all my hubs and bearings and riped all the breaks out!! I hate to deal with them they always messing up!


Good Luck!

CFelton, did you order these from their Ebay store? If not, how did you get that price? I think I need to buy a set :-( Apparently, I can't get my trailer registered unless the brakes are working. I was going to remove them completely, but I'm told that if the trailer came with them from the factory, then they need to be working to get the trailer registered...

Could you take them off and play dumb when they ask if the trailer came with brakes? I've had to deal with the MD dmv a couple times for my wife who's from there originally....THEY SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cfelton]

BGA. I called and ordered them over the phone. I saw the set on their ebay store.They shipped them out really fast.

thanks C,

they sold me a set for $210, which is still a great deal and you're right, they got here fast. I hope to install them in a couple of weeks...

I know I know, my hands were so greasy when I finished ,my wife woulda kicked my a$$ if Ida touched her camera. When I get it all together Ill see what I can do about some pics!

My trailer has the Kodiak brakes. Have worked great. Excellent stopping power but I've got them on both axles and my boat's heavier than a V20. Have had no problems yet. Trailer was made in 04 and has been from florida to arizona then back to Texas where I've pulled it about 1000 miles so far. Gonna hate giving up the aluminum framed, torsion axled, disc braked trailer when I move to the next boat.
