Replacement 5th Wheel Brake Assembly Recommendations
Question:
Hello, can you help identify what replacement kit would fit my 5th wheel? What info do you need?
asked by: Anthony R
Expert Reply:
For trailer brake assemblies on drum brakes, you simply need to know the diameter of your brake assembly backing plate. For 10 inch assemblies with 4 bolts, I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting # AKEBRK-35-SA. For 12 inch assemblies with 5 holes, I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting # AKEBRK-7-SA. If you have 7 inch assemblies with the 4 bolts, I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-2 although that size would be very rare for a 5th wheel trailer.
If you have further questions or have hydraulic brakes, let me know.
