Expert Reply:
Tow dolly manufacturers often have their spindles manufactured to their own specifications meaning regular trailer hubs may not work. To determine if we have a hub and drum assembly that will work with your tow dolly, we will need your inner and outer bearing part numbers as well as the part number of your grease seal. I have attached a photo showing where the part numbers can be found on the bearings and grease seal.
If we can match up the spindle you have to a standard trailer spindle we would be able to fit your dolly with Kodiak disc brakes.
I attached a help article that covers everything needed to add hydraulic brakes to a trailer for you to check out as well in the mean time.
