Compatibility of Titan T4843300 Disc Brake Kit with 1993 Pacific Trimaran Sailboat Trailer
Question:
Howdy, Before ordering this kit and converting my trailer to disc brakes, I wanted to double-check compatibility. First, do you happen to know if this is compatible with my 1993 Pacific trailer? The trailer currently has an old Titan/Dico model 60 which is completely rusted and Id like to replace, for what it is worth. If you dont happen to know the answer to this, what are the main aspects of the trailer I should check for compatibility? The bolt spacing on the brake flange? Do I have to worry about the axle diameter or length? Ive attached a picture of my current non-functional drum brakes for reference. Just want a little bit of confidence before I pull the trigger. Thanks!

If your current axle has a 4 bolt brake mounting flange (bolt pattern is standard), uses a L68149 inner and L44649 outer bearing and 10-19 ( # RG06-050) grease seal, the hub/rotors included with the Titan # T4843100 would be compatible. Check your existing wheel bearings which should have the bearing reference numbers stamped on the bearing cage. The surface of your spindle that the grease seal rides on should be about 1.719 inches in diameter.
If the wheel bearings, grease seal journal surface diameter and brake mounting plate bolt pattern match up, the # T4843100 should work great for you.
Unfortunately, we don't have a ready reference that would tell us what specific parts are used on a given year, make and model trailer. I attempted to find an online copy of an owner's manual but came up empty.
