Which Trailer Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator is the Best
Question:
I want to change from surge brakes to the very best EOH disc brake system possible on my 27 foot tandem axle EZLoader 2016 model Tri-toon trailer. I will be pulling it with a 2016 F150 4x4 with tow package and 3.5L ecoboost engine. I will be doing a lot! of long distance trailering, much of it on Interstate highways. Total loaded trailer weight is approx 6500 lbs. . I will be boating in fresh and salt water. Mostly fresh water. I am considering Kodiak Stainless Steel disc brakes on all 4 trailer wheels - but not sure the rest of the setup for the EOH. What do you recommend for the very best setup and performance?? Thank you

For the absolutely best performance and reliability you can't beat the HydraStar electric over hydraulic actuators. We have found that they are the most reliable, react the fastest and just in general work the best.
For just the actuator you would want part # HBA16 but if you wanted a kit that has brake lines and a breakaway kit you would want the part # CAR-HBA16-2. Then for your hubs and rotors # K2HR35D.
I also attached a link to a page that has a guide that will walk you through the process of adding EOH brakes to a trailer.
