Fit of Hydrastar HSE7K-T1 Disc Brake Kit on 2019 NorthPoint 315 RLTS 5th Wheel
Question:
1. Will this kit fit my 2019 NorthPoint 315 RLTS? Ive sent in axle photo. 2. There is a similar kit by Hydrastar for tandem axles which is a couple hundred dollars less. Is there a difference bwtn that and this. I see perhaps one includes bearings, the other does not?. 3. This is labelled as a premium. What makes it premium over a Dexter or Kodiak which also appear on your website? Thanks. ps. love the install video. Detailed enough for this old gut to follow.

According to the axle tag you sent (thanks for that, BTW), you have a standard Dexter 7K axle.
I'm not sure which other Hydrastar system you're speaking of. The # HSE7K-T1 kit you'd looked at is a Hydrastar complete Disc Brake Kit designed for 7K axles like yours. The kit includes the Hydrastar Disc Brake Electric over Hydraulic brake actuator, 4 hub/rotors complete with bearings, races and grease seals, brake calipers and pads and the necessary brake line kit which includes the brake lines, and all the fittings and hardware needed. The only other thing you might need is grease caps, part # 38605. The rotors are compatible with a 25580 inner and a 14125A outer wheel bearing, and have an 8 on 6-1/2 inch bolt pattern.
All the components in the kit are of high quality. The rotors are Dacromet coated for superior corrosion resistance. Of all the different EOH actuators we offer, the Hydrastar is by far the favorite of our install techs here at etrailer. They're very well constructed, have very few problems and work very well which is why it's the system I recommend most often. Dexter and Kodiak make a great product as well, but the Hydrastar kit is pretty much all-inclusive, so you won't need to piece together parts only to find later that they don't work together.
I've linked to an installation video you mentioned, I'm glad you found it helpful. I'll pass that along to our crew!
