3,500 lb Trailer Brake Setup that Fits Behind 10 inch Trailer Wheel

Question:

Is there a retrofit brake suitable for my 3500lbs 5x4.5 axle? I run 10inch tires, 20.5x8.5-10, so Im not sure if theres a drum brake that will work for this size. Thx

Since 3,500 brake drums are too large to fit behind a 10 inch trailer wheel the only option you'd have would be a disc brake kit like the Kodiak part # K2HR35D-8 which has a 3,500 lb capacity, 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern and would work well.

I attached a couple help articles on instaling disc brakes on a trailer for you to check out as well.
