Drum brake assembly provides superior protection from corrosion and lets you reverse without actuating. Designed for use with hydraulic brake actuators that do not include reverse lockouts. Fits most 14-1/2", 15" and 16" wheels.
Features:
Specs:
The unique free-backing design, patented by DICO, lets your trailer move in reverse without actuating the brakes. When you begin backing up, the brake shoes are firm against the drum, as in a braking situation. As you continue in reverse, however, the shoes turn with the drum until the lining pressure is released and you are able to back up freely.
These brakes are designed to eliminate friction between the shoes and drum when you are driving in reverse. A trailer breakaway kit will not be effective should your trailer disconnect from your tow vehicle when backing up.

The Galphotire coating looks like it will outlast the trailer. Definitely made my job easier. I used these to repair the brakes on an M-1102 military trailer. These don't have the parking brake option like the original brakes, but then I never used the Parking brake. E-trailer also has the assemblies with the parking brake.
The brakes fit perfectly and have performed flawlessly. The replacement was just routine maintenance to replace worn brakes. They shipped fast, well packed and ready to bolt on.
Buying them fully assembled was far easier than trying to replace the shoes themselves. Besides, if you exposed your trailer to any kind of salt water - you'll definitely want to change ALL parts. The cost is negligible and well worth knowing they will perform when yo need them to. Why chance replacing just a few parts? Yea, you might save some money, but not much.
Fantastic service and parts! I doubt I'll shop elsewhere!
Thank you!
I replaced the right and left brake assemblies and repacked the wheel bearings on my 1979 EZ Loader trailer on a Saturday afternoon. The entire job was very easy to do. I did have to do some minor re-tapping of the original hydraulic fittings primarily to get it to thread into the assembly fitting with ease, but even that was a snap (my neighbor just happened to have a tap and die set). I pull about 4000 lb of Searay and trailer combined (I weighed them on a public scale), and it was past time to replace the assemblies and actuator which had major corrosion after all those years of good service. If nothing else, I have peace of mind that all is well behind me.
replaced 10 yr old brakes on my boat trailer.easy install @ all ss springs etc.only wish backing plate had holes front @ back for fresh water flush. they have a hole for fw flush, but only on one side. other than that, a well made @ coated marine brake.
Ordered both left and right assemblies. These look great and bolted right up. Adjusted easily. Only trouble with these is my brake line fitting would not thread into the wheel cylinder. I had to re-tap the holes on both sides. I first thought it was just some oversight on the first assembly, but when I had to do it on both of them, then that made me start to wonder. If you order these, don't be suprised if you also need a 1/8-27 NPT to run in the wheel cylinder ports. I'm sure I will like these much better than the original rusted steel assemblies that these replaced. Time will tell.
This product is better than buying just wheel cylinders and brake shoes. The price made me skeptical of the quality, but these appear to be the real deal. They come fully assembled down to the contact points being already lubed. The shipping was unbelievably fast and everything was packed carefully and suitably to protect the products from damage in shipping. It is very evident that the employees at etrailer.com care about their products and customers.
I have been very pleased with all the products that i have ordered from etrailer. The delievery has been faster then i had anticipated. I highly recommend anyone that is looking for trailer products, to look around on your web site first.
Very happy with products, seem to be good quality and are exact match for a 15 yr. trailer. Everyone that I talk to is very professional and helpful. Will have no problem doing business with this company again.
